Andy Slattery has a strong hand with Harry The Rogue and Kilworth Kate. The former couldn't get past the odds-on Warnie at Bellewstown but his neck second at Down Royal earlier reads well. Kilworth Kate has run in a couple of strong maidens and is a likely improver and though Look At The Stars was behind Harry The Rogue at Down Royal he should get closer. CARDINAL ZIN was just touched off over an extended 5f at Sligo then performed well in a strong 6f Curragh maiden. He should have some more improvement in him and gets the nod.
