PRINCE CHARMIN' appeared to be going the right way before his win at Limerick in March and but for a couple of iffy jumps at the final two flights, he'd surely have won that contest with much more authority. He still picked up nicely to get the job done and, with Walsh for company now, can progress again to land this prize. Ballyegan Hero comes here off a fine success at Tramore and could also have more to give while Admiral Brian and handicap debutant Petuna are the others meriting consideration.
