FormscanBy John O'Riordan - SUPPOSEDTOBE should be difficult to beat on just his second start for Gavin Cromwell. Well fancied on his stable debut at Navan last month, he did very well to finish fourth, considering he had to break from stall 22. Much better housed on this occasion, the four-year-old should have a clearer passage under Seamie Heffernan. High Altitude returned to something like his best when runner-up at Killarney last month. Connections have diverted from the usual summer trip to Galway, so arrive here with a fresh, well handicapped horse. Cleopatra's Needle never saw daylight when seventh over course and distance last time but showed signs of ability nonetheless. It won't be easy from this wide draw but granted luck in running, she can play a leading role.
