Verdict
This is poor fare and KESTREL would be a confident choice on his second to Bell Weir at Gowran in April. He's pulled up in two subsequent starts but hopefully can get back on track. Baby Jake has been looking extremely moderate though may have been finding the ground too fast and can probably do better. Flanagans Field made a fair debut in a soft ground bumper at Roscommon but has shown nothing since on quicker going while Spot The Header looked very one-paced at Galway last weekend.
