Verdict
A CASE OF YOU and Logo Hunter will be racing in Group company this summer so watching two of Ireland's top sprinters in a conditions' race is a real bonus for racegoers. The former had his main rival over three lengths behind on his reappearance here last March and ended the campaign in brilliant form, landing the Prix de L'Abbaye at Longchamp before a fair run on ground too fast in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint. Logo Hunter is only rated 1lb lower after landing Listed races at Naas and Cork in early summer though is probably better over the minimum. The selection's stablemate Current Option has a strike-rate of 6-25 but has never raced over a trip this short.
