Verdict

SHANNON ROYALE failed to do himself justice when joint-favourite for a good-quality handicap at Navan last time but had been progressive prior to that, including a course maiden win, and is given another chance in first-time blinkers. Prince Palace made a solid start to his handicap career when third at Fairyhouse last month and is feared most unless the market vibes are notably strong surrounding Intent Approach.
