CREATIVE TALENT is getting closer and finished strongly into second at Tramore last time when six lengths clear of the rest. He’s less exposed than Solar Heat, who found one too good back in maiden company at Kilbeggan on her latest start. Echo Lady was less than fluent at Rosscommon last time having gone close over track and trip before that while though Is She Diesel was runner-up at Punchestown on her hurdling debut back in June she has been beaten in a couple of bumpers since. Charlie Stout may finish closer after a modest hurdling bow here and could prove best of the rest.
