Sulwaan won twice on the Flat in the UK and made a winning start over hurdles for Dermot Weld last July. He returned from a very long break over hurdles at Down Royal in June and may need another run to put him straight. Fluidity has gone up a massive 15lb since scoring at Navan and couldn't cope at the Curragh last time while Miracle Cure has yet to score on Turf though he's gone very close on a couple of occasions. Brog Deas completed a hat-trick in the spring and suffered in the weights as a consequence. He has continued to rise without winning which may hand the initiative to VEDANI. He landed a Curragh maiden in June before a cracking run back there on his handicap debut. He didn't quite last out over 1m3f at Killarney where he was caught close home and this looks his optimum trip.
