Verdict

Nurburgring didn't cut much ice at the Curragh in September but much better will be expected of the son of Zoffany this season. His stable also run Ikigai Star, a son of Sea The Stars out of a mare who produced a winner with her first foal to race. Collaborative is related to four winners and has an Irish Derby entry as does GALILEO'S COMPASS, a full-brother to the very useful Changingoftheguard and he gets the nod over Queenstown, another son of Galileo and related to two winners.
