In depth

Verdict

Crouching Harry is still a maiden but is getting closer though he may prefer another furlong as he finished strongly over 7f at Tipperary. Sharp And Smart has her first start on Polytrack but she's been going really well and looks a big threat to all though it's NINGALOO REEF who gets the vote. He won over this trip at Naas in June then followed a fine run over 6f on the same track with another victory there where he came with a late run to score over 6f. He's shot up the weights but is on the upgrade and can defy the extra. Pre Tax Profit started favourite in the first of those runs at Naas but ran poorly. He almost made amends over 6f here a month ago and this lightly-raced type probably has more to offer.
