POWERFUL took another step forward when third in a Navan maiden on his reappearance and appeals as one who can progress again now moving into handicap company. Don't Go Yet is interesting off his lower hurdle mark and is feared most ahead of Zuzukel, who remains one likely to click at some point for Tony Martin.
