Race preview
REPUTE can step forward from a promising debut performance to claim this. Paddy Twomey's charge ran a nice race first time at Navan when third to Forest Of Dreams. He was caught on the outer then and only found his stride late on so stepping up almost a furlong now should help. Alex D got caught up in a duel up front at the Curragh last time and had little to offer late on. He could be capable of better now. Aidan O'Brien puts blinkers on Giorgio Vasari after a slightly disappointing show here 18 days ago. He had to be niggled along to hold a position early then and the headgear could make a difference. His runner-up effort on debut at Fairyhouse would make him a big player.
