Hailstone showed good pace for a long way in the race won by Fox Dream at Listowel when Fast In The Sun, who missed the break, was just behind and Magwadiri in the rear. Billy Big has run well in better maidens than this and should be suited by the extra furlong but this can go to a newcomer. Ken Condon has his horses in good form and FUTURE FRONTIER is out of a mare who has produced winners with her first two foals so he's handed the vote. Ger Lyons' Zoffany filly Dancing Waves is another to keep an eye on along with Tinder, whose dam is from a smart family of milers.
