LIGETI looked progressive on the AW earlier in the year and produced his best turf outing to date last time out when finding only one too strong over C&D. He's been raised just the minimum for that effort and ought to go close again in this. Automated was out of form when last seen in this sphere but hurdles form since means he commands respect while last week's Fairyhouse scorer Pirolo should also have a say despite the penalty he carries. With Tony Martin aiming three at the race, it will be interesting to see which of the trio the market favours and the bottom weight Ondamoura is another meriting closer inspection back on the level with blinkers returned.
