Nero Emperor made a very promising debut over this trip at Tipperary in April and was made favourite on his belated return to action over 6f here a fortnight ago. He ran well until tiring late on and will have come on for the run but WASABI'S HOUSE finished in front of him in that race here and, as she was unlucky in-running, should confirm the form and be good enough for this. Multitasking ran very well here in September and was taking on tough company in a nursery at Naas later where the soft ground wasn't to his liking. Friday Fever was well supported to make a winning debut over 7f here last month and he led for a long way so this expensive son of Cape Cross is likely to set a strong pace and could be difficult to peg back.
