SANTANA PLESSIS has been an expensive failure since making a promising debut over a year ago but was conceding weight when runner-up in his last two starts and will be very difficult to beat. Tudors Glory returned from a long break to run well at Wexford so should improve enough to get into contention while dual point-to-point winner Oscar Academy will be having his first start under Rules. With her yard in good form, Beautiful Drama may prove best of the remainder.
