Pub Talk is admirably consistent and though it was only a claimer he won on Friday this doesn't look any stronger. He has his massive weight reduced by Daniel King's claim but still has to concede 21lb to KNOCKMORE PRINCE, which may prove beyond him. Noel Meade's charge showed little in three maidens last summer but has improved markedly on this surface, following a fair effort last month with an even better run over 7f a couple of weeks ago when headed on the post. Alfarida was behind in that latter event though was saying on and can get closer. Matt Connor may prove best of the remainder.
