Araukan has only been staying on at one pace and may need softer ground but Storm Flight, who showed little in two bumpers, did better in a big field on his hurdling debut at Down Royal. BLACK MARKET was beaten a long way in his first two starts over fences but produced a much-improved effort over 2m6f at Downpatrick where he only faded on the run-in after holding every chance. He wouldn't need much more to land what looks a very poor maiden. Yendo has shown nothing to date but can't be dismissed given connections.
