ETON DORNEY will be a short-price to open his account. He went close to catching the winner on his racecourse debut at Stratford last month and should take care of these with a similar effort. Ifonlywecud ran better here on his debut than at Market Rasen last time but the remainder with experience have shown nothing so far. McCoy's presence on Irish point-to-point fourth A Tail Of Intrigue takes the eye and he may prove better than the newcomers Vrombel and Tara Muck.
