FormscanBy John O'Riordan - SOVEREIGN BANTER can gain a first career win on his second start for trainer Andrew Slattery. Up with the pace until weakening late on over 7f on stable debut here last time, the three-year-old is fitted with first-time blinkers on this occasion. Well drawn against the favoured stands rail, it would be no surprise to see the Ten Sovereigns colt make all. Course and distance winner American In Paris has to again have every chance in what appears a modest contest even for the grade. Jazzy Dancer returns from a break off a much reduced mark. A prominent racer, he is arguably a better horse at Dundalk but does have a turf win to his name.
