Verdict

There was obviously something amiss with Mint Chai at Leopardstown in June as he started favourite on the back of three promising runs but was beaten very quickly. He's been given a break and if back to his best will be thereabouts. Erysimum made a reasonable debut at Fairyhouse and wasn't beaten far in a strong maiden at the Curragh next time so she should get involved but the vote goes to AMPLE SUFFICIENCY. Dermot Weld's colt came up against race-fit rivals on his debut at Leopardstown but made a good impression and should have come on enough to take this. Jessica Harrington's newcomer Hint Of Frost may prove best of the remainder.
