Flying Visit is the form pick on his runs at the Curragh and Galway when not beaten far. All runs were on ground with plenty of give and he didn't impress on good going at Cork last week. COLD STEEL could have his measure as he would have finished very much closer to Snowy Owl at Killarney but for being badly impeded. Joseph O'Brien's pair Kalu Pande and Louisville both ran in strong maidens on their debuts and will have come on while True Conviction ran better than her final position suggests at Leopardstown.
