Verdict

KAPTAIN BAY may have found underfoot conditions taxing him on the back of a 3-month break when pulled up at Fairyhouse 7 weeks ago and he's worth another chance returned to a quicker surface in receipt of his handy 4-y-o allowance. Mic Drop, who shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests on his latest outing and Oh So Charming head up the dangers.

  1. KAPTAIN BAY (IRE)
  2. MIC DROP (IRE)
  3. OH SO CHARMING
