HIGH MOUNTE made a very promising start behind Lethal Power at Roscommon and the winner has gone in again. This is a much longer trip but his pedigree suggests he'll stay and he can go one better. The trip should also hold no terrors for Legal Spin, another stepping-up markedly in trip after finishing second over 1m2f at Cork. He's a full-brother to Laws Of Spin and Leigh Roche will ensure there is no hanging about. Daly An Sceil is the only other one to consider though his fourth behind Manzil at Down Royal doesn't read quite as good as his two main rivals,
