FORTHEGREATERGOOD easily landed the odds in a Liscarroll point in March. His dam won a bumper and Fergal O’Brien’s mare should have the pace for this so is just preferred to Warren Greatrex’ newcomer Eleanor Grove, who is also jumps bred but is a half-sister to a winner on the Flat in France. Bourbon Beauty wasn’t beaten far when third at Southwell but Poniente disappointed on her return at Ffos Las and now gets headgear.
