Verdict

AGARTHA showed major improvement when stepping into Group 3 company at Leopardstown where she made all. She escapes a penalty and a similar run should be good enough. Stable companion Seisai was over three lengths behind and looks held despite landing a Listed contest at Tipperary and Concert Hall will need to make further progress from her victory over a filly who has been beaten subsequently. Discoveries battled on gamely to gain her course and distance success while Twinkle was a decisive winner over her juvenile rivals after being awarded a Galway maiden when the three-year-old Aurora Princess was disqualified.
