Verdict
JOHN HONEYMAN went close at Dundalk on his latest start and the Irish raider has every chance with an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause today. Royal Cosmic ended last year in fine form though both wins at Musselburgh came over 1m4f and John Caesar is preferred on last month’s fourth over today’s trip at Beverley. Druid's Diamond is another dropping back in distance while Natajack slides further down the weights without yet showing any benefit.
