Verdict
THE LUTE PLAYER's third behind Marcher Lord at Navan, with Actually and Miltonia behind, could get a boost earlier but he got bogged down in testing conditions at Cork so wouldn't want more rain. Stable companion Cherub has been looking very moderate in handicaps but Three Laws has generally been running well and should get into contention. Prophets Voice is well exposed having had 10 starts but Theophilos caught the eye in no uncertain terms at Leopardstown and wouldn't need to improve much to make the frame.
