Verdict

TAURAN SHAMAN would have gone close to landing a gamble but for being badly chopped up by the winner's antics at the Curragh 3 weeks ago and is well worth another chance. Sense of Worth looks a hard horse for the handicapper to pin down given his rate of progress and is another to consider, while the well-bred Federica Sophia won her maiden in good style over this C&D and will go on improving.

  1. TAURAN SHAMAN (IRE)
  2. SENSE OF WORTH (IRE)
  3. FEDERICA SOPHIA (IRE)
