A much-deserved first taste of success beckons for ATLANTIAN, who has found just one too good on each of his last three starts and a 2 lb rise for his latest effort at Limerick is very fair indeed, given that he pulled well clear of the rest with the winner. He is unexposed as a stayer, too. Better Times Ahead is an obvious threat back hurdling having scored off just a 1 lb lower chase mark at Navan recently, while Atacanter is open to improvement and West Breeze is also accorded respect.
