Verdict

Plenty in with chances but preference if for GOLD HAVEN, who ran her best race sporting first-time blinkers when finishing runner-up at Cork earlier this month and, provided the headgear works just as well a second time, Paul Flynn's 5-y-o can go a place better at the expense of Gamigin, who finally got off the mark at Ayr recently and races from the same mark here. St Denis's Well, Malbas and Baltinglass Hill are another trio worth keeping an eye on.
