After looking at the PP (http://www.brisnet.com/bris_link/pdfs/darley_88232.pdf) I think it might be worth a shot - depending on how the odds end up of course - at trying to beat Grasshopper in this race with either Forty Acres and/or Going Ballistic.
Grasshopper is clearly the most likey winner, but his last two performances came with him on the lead going :48 for the half, and 1:12&2 for 6f. With Forty Acres in this race, those kind of fractions are unlikely. Forty Acres has won three in a row over this course impressively, has posted two solid works leading up to this, and could get an easy lead here. If he does, he might be dangerous. Going Ballistic's last win on the dirt came last October, so he clearly would be a bit of a price here, but he has closed very well in his last three. If Grasshopper, Forty Acres, and perhaps one of the others gets locked in a battle early, it could set up for Going Ballistic late. I'm just not totally sold on Grasshopper. He towers over this field in terms of speed figures, but if he goes off at some ridiculous price, I think trying to beat him makes sense.

Whats your book on Harty Eoin? I don't know a whole lot about him, other than he seems to get some decent Darley horses now and then. I haven't noticed him developing that many stakes horses.
