Ger Lyons has three entries with Colin Keane on board ALTO SAX for the first time. he has yet to reach a place in five starts but just about done enough to earn the vote in a poor nursery. Stablemate Blue Soul is less exposed and his rider‘s claim is a plus while Masonbrook Meadow has shown the potential to win a race like this and his latest effort should be ignored as he lost many lengths at the start. The Bear Trap changed stables after a close second in a Fairyhouse claimer and ran quite well for new connections in a nursery here.
