Verdict

WRONG TURN won a Killarney handicap in great style in May but didn't get very far under a penalty four days later at Tipperary. The assessor has raised him 11lb but he looks the type to win plenty of races this season. Kakagh hasn't won for two years but generally competes at a slightly higher level and is a danger if fit enough after a break. For A Finish is still 6lb higher than his last winning mark while Moiqen was struggling when falling on his latest start at Ballinrobe in April.
