Irish-import OUR DAGGER has progressed in his two starts on the all-weather for new connections earlier this year, winning 7f handicaps at Newcastle and Kempton, and he will be hard to stop in his hat-trick bid, provided that he is able to translate that improved form to turf. The unexposed Twilight Diamond didn't quite measure up to expectations on his handicap debut but there is still time for the 4-y-o to build on the promise he showed in novice company, while Yaaser is also in with a shout.
