Verdict

Last year's winner My Good Brother is weight to give this another fair crack and comes here having run a pleasing race at Laytown earlier this month, his chance is not to be underrated. Lapilli is one to pay attention to debut for new connections while Miss Cogent has fallen down the weight rapidly and could bounce back in a race of this nature. Equally, Independence Day is respected having run some promising races on turf without winning this year. ALFREDO ARCANO ran a rare poor race here over 6f last time but previously had been very consistent at the track. Back down to 5f and with Oisin Orr claiming a valuable 5lb, he can bounce back in this opener.
