Verdict

Gordon Elliott complicates matters with three entries. Jack Kennedy is on board Viscount Wilson, who made a few mistakes when behind stable companion Smiling Eliza on very fast ground here in August. He'll definitely improve as will MONKEYLOU, a winner on the Flat at Killarney before a promising debut over timber at Ballinrobe. The latter gets the vote though Coeur Sublime won a Navan maiden on the level in April, the only start of his career, and went for a massive €260,000 at the sales so he'll be expected to start repaying some of the outlay soon. Our Legend was beaten six lengths by Smiling Eliza at Punchestown so has to be greatly respected along with Far Reach, who wasn't far behind and made a couple of novicey errors, but Future Proof won on heavy going on the Flat so may find this ground too lively.
