Some disappointing types here but if DAWN TROUPER takes to the surface his overall form in the summer should be good enough. Tintoretto found 7f stretching his stamina at Cork and his previous run behind Lost Treasure at the Curragh puts him in the picture while Proud And Elated is rarely beaten far and ran well in a handicap here last week. Chillala hasn't run well the last twice but Sky Moon, one of the few here with scope, made a promising start at Fairyhouse and would only need minor progress to get into contention.
