Verdict

POETIC FLARE posted a borderline smart performance to land the Group 3 Killavullan Stakes over C&D in October and appeals as the type to make his mark at an even higher level this season. A Case of You didn't need to improve to complete the hat-trick on his return at Dundalk but there should still be better to come from him, with Monaasib and Horoscope others to consider.
