        Verdict

        GREEN TO GOLD had run over fences before a spectacular return to the Flat at Bellewstown on Sunday when he scored by eight lengths over that 1m6f trip. Joseph O'Brien, who has ridden him several times in the past, is likely to make this a stamina test and his mount has a ton in hand on official figures under a penalty. Lady Bennett takes a step up in trip after comfortably making a successful handicap debut over 1m2f at Navan. She's been raised 11lb for that but still looks well enough treated to make a bold bid. Days Ahead did well over hurdles late last year but hasn't shown much on the Flat recently but Carlowsantana could pose a threat if the rains arrive as he ran well after a three-month break at Bellewstown last month.
