Trainer Ger Lyons has spoken at Dundalk today about a slight change in policy with his horses, choosing to initially trial his horses on differing or potentially disadvantageous ground.
The Group 1 winning trainer completed a double at the Co Louth venue and following the win of his Cape Wolfe said "I've taken the policy this season to run everything regardless of ground and it's standing to them.
"Before I'd say they were good moving horses and not run them on soft but you don't know if they'll handle it until they run. We'll try them until the jockey jumps off and tells me not to run again on it."
Regarding some of his leading horses, he added "we'll run Endless Drama and Convergence in the Guineas on Saturday and Andrea Atzeni will ride Endless Drama.
"Cappella Sansevero will run in the German Guineas on Monday and Colin (Keane) will ride him."
