Verdict

Jaime Sommers has been very busy and makes a quick reappearance after unseating her rider at the second last at Galway on Monday. She would certainly have been involved in the finish and beaten High Nellie in the process and is progressing fast enough to give a good account. MOULIN A VENT had a fine first campaign over timber beating a big field of maidens at Punchestown and finishing a close second in a Grade 3 at Thurles. He looks a smart staying prospect and will hopefully be ready after a break. Masterson was having his eighth start over timber when landing a Clonmel novices' event and faces tougher rivals as does Runyon Rattler, a comfortable handicap winner at Bellewstown but tackling this longer trip for the first time.
