FormscanBy Michael Graham - Competitive fare. Galileo colt BATON ROUGE drew right away from his rivals over a mile in Dundalk and should relish this step up in trip. He is a full brother to Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Magician who won at Group 3 level over a mile and a quarter. Frankel colt Ratib got off the mark in Dundalk at the backend of last season. He holds an Epsom Derby entry and is clearly a colt with potential. New Reality shed his maiden status in Tipperary last month over an extended mile and a half and should be staying on. Australia gelding Benaud is another that could have a decent three-year-old season.
