FABULOUS SAGA has a penalty for a very impressive victory at Tipperary where he made most and came home hard held. He looks a smart prospect and can see off Down Royal winner Mischievous Max, who looked as though he would be suited by this sort of trip when scoring over two miles. Scully's Dream was well supported when landing a point at Stradbally and looks best of the remainder.
