1	Ex-Richard Fahey gelding was fitted with eyeshields and tongue strap when returning from 5 months off to make a winning debut for this stable over C&D 10 days ago. Up 10 lb now but he had plenty in hand there and should go very well again. 1st Pick 1 Tuscan Point (Ire) Jockey: Taryn Langley Trainer: Adam Kirby J: Taryn Langley T: Adam Kirby	100	-	-	-	63%

Up 2 lb but that was just his second start for current connections and he can't be ruled out. 2nd Pick 3 Mount Ruapehu (Ire) Jockey: Jack Nicholls Trainer: Iain Jardine J: Jack Nicholls T: Iain Jardine	97	-	-	-	23%
