FormscanBy Alan Magee - VOICE OF REASON ran a cracker on debut last year in a Curragh maiden that has worked out well since. The Churchill gelding finished strongly over a mile when a close-up third to Cairo, who went on to win a Group 3 and was runner-up to Paddington in the Tattersalls Irish 1,000 Guineas last Saturday. Pivotal Trigger has yet to race on a sound surface but is an obvious threat. He made all in a maiden at the Galway Festival and was highly tried on both subsequent starts at Longchamp including when placed in a Group 3 over a mile. Harbour Wind is the other winner in the line-up having also forced the pace to make a successful debut at Cork, while Head Of State was disappointing when favourite on his only start at Dundalk last winter but should progress.
