FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Having caught the eye when third on his Curragh introduction last month, ASAKIR can go two places better. A stable second string on that occasion, the Johnny Murtagh-trained gelding kept on nicely in the closing stages to reach the frame. With Ben Coen in the saddle, better can be expected and the son of Zarak should have learned plenty from his first racecourse experience. Cannes, who also made a promising debut when runner-up at the Curragh in November, rates the main threat. Staying on late over a mile, the Sea The Stars colt will appreciate this longer trip. The twice-raced Wyman looks best of the remainder who have already seen racecourse action.
