THE LAST MARDI had notably travelled best and was still going well when falling 2 out on his latest start at Wexford 4 weeks ago (looked likely winner) and Gordon Elliott's charge is fancied to make amends here. The returning Black Bamboo and recent bumper winner Walmix are others fancied to be thereabouts.
