Verdict

Trainer-Henry De Bromhead has a winner and a place from five runners at this meeting in recent years and it may pay to follow JUDGEMENT DAY who is better than his last run on heavy ground at Gowran Park and returns to his preferred trip under Champion jockey Davy Russell. Canardier who finished third of 16 behind Jetz in November has solid ground form and can hit the frame with former David Simcock trained Ahlan Bil Zain who makes his debut here for Mick Halford.
