Boycie had a recent run under his belt before winning last year’s renewal and that’s not the case this time round, though he is back on a winning mark. STORMINGIN has had a couple of outings on the all-weather this year and been placed on both occasions. He was rated much higher when trained in Ireland last year and can open his account for Don Cantillon in this. Tagur has been winning lower grade races on the all-weather recently while Akkadian Empire scored at Wolverhampton last month and Golconda Prince slips further down the weights for the Fahey yard.
