Approbare is 0-32 and did his rating no good when a close second to the long odds-on Shackleton Hero over 6f last week when Brother In Law was just behind in third. Falsaron has moved to Joseph O'Brien but finished last on his first start for the yard last month, though he was returning from a long break. He was a long way behind ZEN SILENCE that day and, with Colin Keane booked, Kieran Cotter's filly looks the safest option, despite the presence of Blue Cabochon. The latter would be a near-certainty for this if repeating either of her Curragh Listed runs behind Frenetic but she didn't show much dash here last time and is likely to be at short odds.
