WILLOFTHEPEOPLE showed plenty of ability and wasn't beaten far on debut at Down Royal 8 weeks ago. With improvement on the way he can make it second time lucky. Joseph O'Brien saddles an interesting pair of newcomers in Substance and Mushaffar, while Coincidental Glory could do better again after last week's good showing at Sligo.
