This represents a good opportunity for DUBAWI SPECTRE, who performed with credit in 2 starts at Dundalk earlier this year, latterly just touched off on his first attempt at this trip. A 2 lb nudge for that near miss looks fair and he makes plenty of appeal. Matt Connor left his 2-y-o form behind when a close third on his handicap bow over a mile on return at Dundalk and shapes as though this trip is just what he wants. He is feared most ahead of potential improver Union Flag.
