Formscan By Stuart Howden - Angelo Pio faces a tougher assignment as he bids for a course and distance treble, but Joseph O'Brien's colt is clearly on the upgrade and cannot be ruled out with any confidence. However, FERVENT is equally progressive having landed a double in fine style at Fairyhouse last month. The three-year-old son of Elzaam appeared to score with plenty left in the tank on his latest start, giving the strong impression there is more to come. Keilah and Tartaraghan look the pick of the remainder.
