Verdict
Golazo started long odds-on for his debut at Punchestown in October but couldn't find extra when headed after attempting to make all. He looks to have been found a good opportunity to make amends though might find COOLAGH PARK too good. Gordon Elliott's newcomer cost E100,000 and is related to several winners in France and out of a mare who scored on the Flat and over jumps. Arbor Vitae is related to plenty of winners and may prove best of the remainder.
