MALAWI has now been a short-priced beaten favourite in all starts including over the course and distance on his debut. He's been leading when tackling further the last twice so reverting to this trip could bring about a change of fortune. His trainer should know how he stands with Safecracker, who was beaten a length by another from the yard, Interpretation, at the Curragh and the latter may have to give best again. Rollet, by Kingman out of a Galileo mare, is an intriguing newcomer who could easily be well up to this class but Boola Boola is likely to succumb to the three-year-olds.
