Verdict

UP HELLY AA ended his 3-y-o campaign on a high when taking the listed Navigation Stakes at Cork. There should be plenty more to come from this progressive colt, and he gets the vote to come out on top provided he's ready to roll. Saltonstall is a major player after scoring at Galway for the second year in succession last month, while Fame And Acclaim is well worth a crack at this level.

  1. UP HELLY AA (IRE)
