        Verdict

        The pedigree of Queen Of Araghty is all stamina and she will only really come into her own when she transfers her National Hunt career to a longer trip. But she has shown enough in a couple of decent bumpers to suggest that she is warming to her task. Tony McCoy has been charged with the job of guiding her round and a bold show is obviously expected. Abzuson also makes plenty of appeal and he too has bright future ahead of him; but may have to play second fiddle if McCoy's mount lives up to her billing.
