In depth

Verdict

Mick The Boyo arrives on a hat-trick and may again just have the edge on Stowaway Forever, who he beat in a driving finish over the course and distance last month. SPARKY STOWAWAY (NAP) had been running well enough over further before dropping back to 2m2f at Leopardstown and gaining his first victory. This is likely to be run at a strong pace which should suit and he can shrug off a 7lb rise. Chateauneuf Du Pap came good at the ninth time of asking in a Tramore maiden, when Back Bar was behind, but had been beaten off lower marks in handicaps previously.
