TRUE DESTINY stuck to his task really well when successful at Sligo on Tuesday and with this tight track the place to attempt another go at 3m, he may well follow up. Kilmurry JJ seems very likely to give his running, while the market may help assess Sittingonthefence's fitness on this return to action.
