Political Policy is out to continue his rapid progression in the Crowne Plaza Race & Stay Handicap at Dundalk on Friday night.
Gavin Cromwell's five-year-old has won four of last five starts, from a mile to a mile and a half, and has risen from a mark of 74 to his current figure of 98 in the space of three months.
Brosnan has chased him home three times this winter and is in opposition again, but the primary danger might come in the shape of Marise, who has finished behind Political Policy on two occasions but has since improved to hit the crossbar twice.
Split The Atom is also enjoying an excellent time of things under the lights and goes to post for the opening Bet & Watch At Titanbet.co.uk Handicap at 5.30.
The Pat Shanahan-trained gelding has been a force over 6f and 7f, but now has something else to prove on his first crack at the minimum trip.
Since finishing seventh behind Split The Atom here in December, National Service has paid his way in the UK and Gordon Elliott returns him to home soil for the Titanbet.co.uk Handicap just four days on from filling the runner-up berth at Wolverhampton.
The start of the Flat season is not far away and Aidan O'Brien, who will be soon stepping up the work of his stable stars, is well represented on the card, with Irish 2,000 Guineas entry Stone Mountain one of three for the Ballydoyle maestro in the Money Back 2nd At Titanbet.co.uk Handicap.
O'Brien will also be triple-handed in the Download Titanbet Sports App Rated Race if the bottom two make it off the reserves' bench, but this could be fought out between last-start winners Shukhov, Alnahar and Skerray Rules.
Chewy Round Town stepped forward to make the frame here last month and may be the answer to the Big Bad Bob Maiden (Div 1).
