ONLY FOR OUR MAN showed improved form sent chasing when winning a maiden at Sligo last month, well on top at the finish, and he can continue his progress as he heads into handicap company over fences. He is taken to get the better of Illtakehimmyself, who has made a promising start to his chasing career, with Dgalwaygallivantor also considered.
