BRANDT did well under the circumstances when ¾-length second to One Horse Army at Fairyhouse last time and, likely to relish this stamina test, Cian Collins' charge could be the one to deliver the goods this time. One Horse Army should be on the premises once again in his hat-trick bid, while Union Station is open to improvement now moving up in distance on his handicap debut in this sphere and Brucejack is another with appealing claims.
