Verdict

Puppetshow has failed to win a maiden race in five attempts now but sets the standard with a mark of 79. Breeze finished ahead of the Ballydoyle filly at the Curragh last time while Roman Wells has gone close at Dundalk the last twice and is preferred to stablemate Haroon. ALJUNOOD never threatened the winner when third at Listowel but that was still an improvement on his earlier debut. A chance is taken Dermot Weld’s charge shows further progress today and he gets the nod.
