Ayr Of Elegance was off the mark over timber at the 13th attempt when benefiting from a cool Blackmore ride at Limerick and attempts to follow up dropped back to 2m. DO YA FEEL LUCKY was comfortably beaten into third that day and is now actually 1lb worse off with the De Bromhead gelding but is nevertheless taken to turn the form round in the belief that he'll be far better suited by this track as well as the move down to 2m. The sole course and distance winner in the contest, he is also expected to harbour scope for improvement after just four outings over timber. Nancy D'Alton shaped quite nicely on the Flat last time and is the other potential improver on show.
