Ificudiwud went for £100,000 after winning a point and this doesn't look the toughest of starts under Rules. Fiddlerontheroof wasn't beaten far at Limerick though could find this a bit too short as he was staying on over that 2m2f. RUN WILD FRED, disqualified after finishing first past in a point in May, was sent into Listed company for his bumper debut and did very well to finish third. This represents a big drop in class and he can get off the mark. His stable companion Tapenade is bred for chasing but Young Dev ran very well behind Grand Mogul at Thurles and wouldn't need much more to get into the frame.
