SO MESSI is given a chance to build on last month's Killarney near miss. Spinning Web has yet to offer much encouragement on the Flat but a recent hurdle debut success suggests he ought to be up making his presence felt in this sphere from a mark in the low-40s. Water Mint, who wasn't too far behind the selection at Killarney, is also on the shortlist.
