Verdict
Joseph O'Brien has some good chances today and HARLEY STREET, a winner at the Curragh for Aidan, is likely to prove much better than we saw when well beaten in a Fairyhouse Grade 3 in February. Mount Frisco makes a quick reappearance after being placed in a Sligo bumper last week and he had a run over timber on that track earlier. Pinyon Jay made great strides from his debut when third in a Kilbeggan bumper last month and Charlie's Dilemma has a similar profile. Duty Bound is penalised for a victory at Sandown when trained by Andrew Balding and hasn't shown much in two starts for new connections.
