Verdict

Adrian Murray has some nice two-year-olds and Courageous Strike made a promising debut behind Port Louis at Roscommon. The winner then went on to finish second to Sea Singer over this track and trip with SLI NA GHEALAI in third and Jim Bolger's filly can make enough progress to get off the mark. Jaadil will improve for his run in that Roscommon event though has around four lengths to make up while Stromberg, a half-brother to a winning miler, is a newcomer to note.
