DEAKIN was most progressive as a 3-y-o, shaping like a smart prospect when easily winning a handicap at Thurles on his final start, so remains one to keep on the right side of this season. Saturn showed a good attitude when making a winning handicap bow at Leopardstown on return 2 weeks ago and this regally-bred colt should have more to offer still, while Crystal Black is another improving sort who's bidding for the hat-trick.
