Eased when beaten at Killarney over 1m finishing last of five last month following a couple of promising runs in the spring. Likely to be able to bounce back.

Won his second race in nine when landing a Limerick 1m four-runner contest in June. Beaten since but looks a leading player here.

9/4
Built on a number of promising starts when winning a 16-runner maiden over 7f at the Galway festival getting off the mark at the fifth time of asking. Likely to improve and worth considering.

11/2
Promising second of 15 beaten 4½L in a 7f handicap at the Galway festival last month on seasonal debut. Dangerous if building on last appearance.

Forecasts

Burning Question (9/4), Still Standing (5/2), Spiorad Saoirse (4/1), Vocal Music (11/2), Future Proof (8/1), Griffyndor (16/1)

Verdict

Competitive and deep renewal of three-year-old handicap where VOCAL MUSIC can build on his promising second of 15 beaten 4½L in a 7f handicap at the Galway festival last month on seasonal debut getting the colt off the mark at the 10th time of asking. The improving Burning Question, Future Proof and Still Standing on seasonal debut could prove to be the biggest dangers.

  2. Burning Question
