Verdict

GALLANTLY looked ready for this step up in trip when chasing home a subsequent listed runner-up on his return at Leopardstown (1m) 4 weeks ago and Aidan O'Brien's colt could well be the answer here. Liam Swagger and Far L'amore head up the dangers, whilst Chortal is a newcomer to note for the Gosden team.
