Verdict

WORKING CLASS HERO improved on his opening effort under Rules when pushing a promising mare close here last month and gets the nod to make it third time lucky. Returning Officer understandably shaped as if needing the run after 15 months off at Kilbeggan recently and is better judged on his debut form for now, while Which Flannerys makes most appeal of the newcomers before market clues.
