Gris Ladera was also engaged to run in the 6.05 last night and looked to have a chance in both races. Treasure The Ridge didn't appreciate being dropped in distance at the Curragh after scoring over 1m2f at Clonmel and the son of Galileo will be suited by this trip. SHALAMAN was with John Oxx last season and has been transferred to the in-form Denis Hogan. He has continued to make good progress and, though awarded the race in the stewards room at Killarney last time, would have been a very unlucky loser and is taken to defy an 8lb rise. Home Secretary is having his first start away from Dundalk in almost two years and has never won on Turf but General Pershing had the pace to score over a mile last time and has won over tonight's trip. Coolfighter, five times a winner in Germany, is an unknown quantity but Tony Mullins will get the best out of him.
