RED LASER had been showing potential before his comfortable success over tonight's rival The Reek here a month ago. He's been raised 8lb, which won't help, but there looks more to come and he can follow up. Al Mancilia scored at the same meeting and a 6lb rise is negated by the claim of the excellent Colin Keane so he can get competitive. Diamond Daze is generally consistent but still a maiden after 16 starts and though Stronger Than Me produced easily his best run when tackling this surface for the first time last month he could still be a few pounds high.
