SOME WAIT showed promise on his debut at Gowran a month ago when he wandered around due to inexperience. He'll be better for that run and can take this though there are numerous potential winners. Alfred James didn't enjoy the heavy ground when fancied here in February and should do much better along with stablemate Are Ya Right Chief, who wasn't too far behind the selection at Gowran. John Kiely's mare Faha made a nice start at Clonmel and her yard do well with similar types while Golanbrook looked a potentially useful type on his Gowran debut and can't have been right when running poorly on this track subsequently. Crocus Bay has been given a nice break since a decent debut effort at Leopardstown in December and looks the type to make his mark over hurdles before long.
