SILVER SHEEN had shown plenty of form for Jessica Harrington on a softer surface and it appears likely that he will have come on significantly for that first start since a wind surgery at Worcester last month. A Different Kind was a decent sort over hurdles and has been tried under more positive tactics since switching to fences. Donnie Azoff has obliged previously under testing conditions over hurdles and should be match fit following recent appearances at Ffos Las and Southwell.
