Verdict
Centaur attracted support at Kilbeggan 10 days ago but never really got going. Steal The Thunder won a point at Tyrella in March while Willie McCreery doesn't have many bumpers so Ball Breaker, who is bred for the Flat, is one to note in the market. Clody Valley is related to several winners including a bumper but TRUMP LEGEND, who is by Mastercraftsman out of a 7f two-year-old winner, should have more basic speed than most of these and gets the vote. Gordon Elliott's pair Felino De Bersy and Global Society have much more conventional NH pedigrees and both are worth noting for the future.
