Verdict

A winner on debut at the Curragh, ATLANTIC COAST ran at least as well when third in Group 2 company over 1m here 6 weeks ago. That experience won't have been wasted on him and he can make a bold bid to resume winning ways. Military is a similarly progressive juvenile and rates the chief danger, ahead of Instant Appeal who is also expected to step up further.
