Verdict
This won't take much winning. Dawn Trouper started off in very good form in the spring and looked certain to win at some stage but his two recent runs after a break haven't shown him in the best of light, including on his track debut last time. Intermedia was beaten narrowly into third in a Curragh maiden in August though that was over 7f and he was well beaten over this trip at Roscommon later. LAAJIDAAL didn't run badly when stepped up to this trip at Roscommon, her first run since June, and the beautifully-bred filly gets the vote to gain a crucial maiden victory for the paddocks.
