HARRY DES ONGRAIS left his bumper form well behind when making late gains to finish fourth in a 16-runner novice on debut in this sphere at Gowran. The former point winner will almost certainly be suited by a stiffer test in time but should nevertheless have enough pace to emerge on top here. Champagne Monarch has a bit to prove starting out for his new yard, which leaves Happy Victory and Simpletwistoffaith as the most likely pair to pick up minor place money.
