Verdict

Squire's Tale was last of 12 on his debut at Dundalk in the autumn but very green and should leave that run well behind in time. But NEPTUNE, also a son of Galileo, gets the vote here. He comes from a very successful family and is a full brother to two winners, including Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Nightime, though it’s an unusual distance over which he makes his debut. Kozy, also related to a host of winners, is another newcomer to note while Time Dee sets the standard on his fourth at Gowran two runs ago.
