PROPOSE was more professional than on debut when runner-up at Dundalk last time and is taken to go one better at the chief expense of Dermot Weld's Esherann, who fared best of the newcomers on his first start at Leopardstown earlier in the month. Valorous Power promises to be suited by the step up in trip and just gets the nod over Rizal for third.
