EAGLE'S REALM (declared 19.30 Southwell Monday) was too free when unable to complete the 4-timer at Newcastle 2 weeks ago but the drop back in trip will suit and he remains of plenty of interest. Easter Icon did well last season and is starting out for an in-form yard, so rates the main threat ahead of the veteran Grandee, who's dropping in class.
