Verdict

BUCANEER'S SPIRIT landed a gamble from a much-reduced mark on his return at Cork and can go well again after a 6 lb rise. The runner-up there, Land of the Giants, finally got off the mark at Ayr last week and looks set for another good run. Sole 3-y-o Monvoe opened his account at Limerick on his return and must be respected.
