FormscanBy Michael Graham - EPHESUS has done enough in his first two outings to suggest a win isn't far away. He began with a third place over a shorter trip in Dundalk and took the runner-up berth when tried over an extended 1m4f in Chester. He holds a Group 2 entry for next month. Teofimo was just pipped by a head over a similar trip in Fairyhouse. That was a marked improvement on his unplaced debut run here, so he is dangerous. Blackpool, a stablemate of Ephesus, gets blinkers on his first attempt at this trip. His third in Navan wasn't devoid of ability at all. Rosso was a somewhat remote fourth on debut at the Curragh and should improve.
