    Verdict

    Aidan O'Brien won this with an odds-on chance last year and HALLMARK looks certain to start a short price after his very easy victory at Leopardstown. He has no more entries but should go on from this and will surely be seen in much better company later. Pincode is a worthy opponent after completing a double at Tramore on Saturday and he's progressing at a rate of knots while Nebulla found 7f much too short on his reappearance at the Curragh and can do better. Buyer Beware wants rain and though Highly Toxic has performed in higher grade he disappointed last time and has a stiff task conceding weight to his younger rivals.
