In depth

Verdict

Maureen Danagher has a fine prospect in Ikidunot, who could hardly have won with more authority in a Limerick maiden. He's high enough in the weights for his handicap debut but should still make his presence felt. The Rocking Dock was is cracking form over timber and fences last season but had little chance at the weights when sent to Wetherby for his final start and should be more competitive from today's mark. Potential supporters of the progressive MARZARA will be interested to see how Pozyc fares in the previous race as Timothy Doyle's five-year-old beat him in good style at Clonmel. Boland's Corner looked as though this trip would suit when a good third to Ambitious Fan over the minimum here last time.
