In depth

Verdict

Chesterton ran very well over this trip at Gowran then appeared to find 6f too sharp at Cork. Are We Dreaming has shown very good pace in both starts at around this trip and looks certain to get into contention while Ecoutez will have come on markedly for her run in a Cork handicap. TEXAS SUN cost £80,00 and the son of Dark Angel is taken to make a winning debut in what looks a moderate maiden. Carla's Kodi Bear did best when dropped back to an extended 5f at Navan.
