Verdict
Business has been placed in five of seven all-weather starts in the UK and didn't run badly on his first start for Gordon Elliott at Laytown. High Voltage was travelling easily for much of the way here a month ago but eventually found 1m2f stretching his stamina. Prince Of Peace had three runs here a year ago and produced some good efforts in Turf handicaps during the summer but Pocket Veto looks a more likely winner. She caught the eye on her belated debut at the Curragh before a fair effort on softer ground at Naas. A TAAD MOODY attained a mark of 94 in her juvenile campaign thanks to a close third in a Leopardstown Listed contest. She hasn't been seen since October last year, which is a concern, but her form is a cut above these.
