The drop back to 5f is possibly not ideal for IRISH NECTAR, but he won with such a degree of authority at Leicester on Tuesday that he could take some stopping under a penalty if getting the breaks. This is competitive however, with Duran, Harry's Halo, Charlie Mason and Woolisle just a handful of potential threats.
