Verdict

DARKOLVA stepped up on his debut effort when finishing runner-up last time out and he can break his maiden at the third time of asking in this 7f event. The selection hails from the stable of Joseph O'Brien and can get the better of Vocal Music who ran well on soft ground when finishing third at Roscommon last time. River Boyne who put in a decent effort on debut can claim third today.
