CONCLUSION led for a long way on very testing ground here last month and today's much quicker conditions can enable him to gain his first victory. Razoul made a very promising start on heavy going at Gowran in October and is the type to do well in his second season. Swiss Cottage is easily the form pick on his close third behind Mendelssohn at the Curragh though he didn't run very well on his final start at Naas in September and has been gelded. Bucky Larson has had both starts on the Polytrack at Dundalk and didn't make the expected progress last time while the newcomer Crimson Mystery is by Shamardal out of a winning miler.
