Can Beef To The Heels lead a big field home?
"Beef To The Heels is in good shape and he has the form to go close."
Two runners, one race but what does Gordon make of Beef To The Heels and Vapiano's chances in the 14:35?
14:35 Down Royal
Beef To The Heels
He's in good form at home and we've freshened him up since his last run, where he finished second behind Hats And Heels at Naas. He mightn't just want the ground as soft as it's likely to be at Down Royal this afternoon but, as I said, he's in good shape and he has the form to go close. Davy Russell is on him and he'll probably ride him prominent from the off.
Vapiano
He has been a bit disappointing but we're still learning with him. We're stepping him up to two-and-a-half miles today and I'm hoping that it'll bring out a bit of improvement in him.
