FormscanBy Michael Graham - Aidan O'Brien's ROOSEVELT holds big-race entries and could prove to be better than a 92-rated handicapper in time. He got off the mark on his second start in a Leopardstown maiden and it was heartening to see the runner-up finish third in Listed company on his next outing. This is a marked drop in trip for Roosevelt, however, he made virtually all in Leopardstown and may repeat those tactics. Orchidaceae disappointed in the Curragh, but has plenty of ability and won over a similar trip in Leopardstown last summer. Just Before was a never nearer third over six furlongs when last seen at the Curragh and has winning form over an extended 7f, so ought to be in the mix.
