ZIGGY'S TRITON has been thriving over C&D and there is no reason to take him on in his hat-trick bid. Old rival Hiya Maite can go well again, while Mon Na Slieve has a fair shout. Don't rule out D Flawless, either.

Verdict
Has the speed for this sort of trip but ended up doing too much too soon when seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 33/1) 22 days ago, shaping as if better for the run after 7 months off. Unexposed as a sprinter and interesting.
