Listowel

A good-class but tricky little heat. Ready Gowran maiden winner SATOYAMA looked a likeable type that day and gets the vote. Class-dropper Straight Up is a course winner but it's hard to know where's he at this year, while Listentodwindblow, who might improve for being gelded, comes with risks attached too. Thread Of Gold is another that is hard to assess, but certainly can't be dismissed. The market should be very helpful. [Mark Nunan]
