FormscanBy John O'Riordan - CHIEF LITTLE ROCK can go one better now having finished runner-up over course and distance on his racecourse debut. The Aidan O'Brien-trained colt shaped as though he would improve from that initial experience as he ran green before keeping on strongly to take second close home. With the benefit of that race, he should be an altogether different proposition here. Bad Desire is another colt entitled to improve, having also occupied the second spot on his introduction. However, the form of his Galway maiden may not be quite as strong as that in which Chief Little Rock made his debut. Soldier's Empire, a half-brother to two winners, should be noted on his racecourse debut. Ger Lyons is well able to ready one first time out, so the Bated Breath colt cannot be discounted on that score.
