Verdict
Second in a maiden at this track in October, HONOURAMONGTHIEVES can go one better now. He stayed on late to chase home a subsequent winner and the Kevin Coleman-trained gelding gave the impression that he would be suited to this step up in trip. Sure to be all the better for two subsequent runs this term, he has almost certainly been aimed at this particular meeting for some time. It's also encouraging that Colin Keane, who was on board the Twilight Son gelding in that aforementioned maiden, takes the ride again. Dundalk runner-up Musashi is an obvious contender in first-time blinkers, while jockey bookings suggest that Gatlinburg is the pick of the Donnacha O'Brien quartet.
Expert View Verdict
Several likely improvers here with GATLINBURG top of the list. He's bred to be much better than he's shown so far and the extra 4f of today's race, now handicapping off a mark of just 64, could see him really take off. Stablemate Mount Eden is in a similar boat, handicapping for the first time, and also gets first-time cheekpieces. He's the danger, although Musashi, for Joseph O'Brien, has already shown his worth in handicaps and now gets first-time blinkers.
