Verdict

Sleepy Head found only one too good on good ground at Listowel in June and Bo Bridget was placed over a longer trip at Navan a fortnight ago and can race off the same mark. But DIGNIFIED AIR has had just the six outings and, after suffering a neck defeat at Killarney last month, Gerard O’Leary’s charge looks set to open his account. Bert Leaf is upped 6lb for scoring at Bellewstown, his first success in 16 attempts, while Accladora only won a maiden claimer at the same track before placing at Down Royal last week.
