SLIEVE BINNIAN showed the benefit of his run at the Curragh (strong form) when narrowly failing at Roscommon 16 days ago, really motoring late on. He looks a big player again, with fellow 4-y-o Genuine Article also worth bearing in mind. Old Faithful and Thor's Hammer are respected in a competitive race of its type.
