SEE ME HERE really found his form in the summer and, following two promising runs, won with something in hand at Killarney. He probably would have followed up at Gowran but for falling at the second last and compensation awaits. El Vasco beat a big field of maidens over this trip at Gowran in June but has looked a few pounds high in the ratings in handicaps. Delayed Eloquence travelled well for much of the way at Galway and wasn't beaten far so he's on the short-list along with Moonlone Lane, who was in very good form over fences at this time last year and reverts to hurdles on a much lower mark. L'attesa scored over the minimum at Kilbeggan in September but hasn't proved himself over this trip and though Neddyvaughan ran his best race to date at Clonmel last time he appears to go best on that track.
