PRIORY WALK has been hit with an 8 lb rise for Thurles, but he was value for extra on the day with his rider not having to get serious, so he looks capable of following up. Mylestown Upper's opening mark demands improvement but that's certainly possible given his profile and the stable he represents. Fortune Street and Silvertown complete the shortlist.
