Arriving easily one of the least exposed, INSTANT APPEAL again ran well when third in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown (9f) 3 weeks ago and he looks one of the likelier types once more operating from the same mark. Refreshment has proved to be a different proposition since the blinkers went on and he's highly respected in his hat-trick bid. Genuine Jim and Empress Artemis complete the shortlist.

    Much improved equipped with blinkers, narrowly off the mark at Leopardstown (1m) prior to showing much improved form to follow up in 17-runner handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft, 5/1) 14 days ago, readily. 8 lb higher now but respected nevertheless in hat-trick bid.
