Aerialist, a 400,000gns son of Sea The Stars, was tried over 5f on his last two starts but this is much more likely to be his trip. Ardhoomey made a reasonable debut at Leopardstown in June where he only faded in the closing stages while Tadaany showed good pace over an extended mile at Galway and this should be his trip. CENOTAPH is no stable star on the evidence of his two runs to date but probably came up against a useful recruit when runner-up to In My Pocket at Navan last weekend and with that under his belt can get off the mark.
