WATERLORD will likely be a short price for this after his demolition job at Stratford. Flat-bred, he should have too much pace for Downpatrick and Gowran runner-up Touch A Million despite his penalty. King Of Fashion needs more but Lucinda Russell's Miss High Time is an interesting newcomer as she's a full sister to a bumper and hurdles winner.
