RUN FOR HARRY arrives on the back of good placed efforts at Naas and Bellewstown this spring and won't need to pull out much more for first-time cheekpieces. Saynothinatall appeals as one who could have more to come in handicaps and is next on the list. Master Player hasn't been seen since winning a Bangor maiden just under a year ago but still appeals as one who could have more to offer, a comment which also applies to San Aer now faced with a sharp 2m for the first time over hurdles.
