In depth
Verdict
Trueba was having his first start for the in-form Johnny Murtagh when scoring here last month but a 10lb rise looks harsh. Collateral form gives him plenty to find with Fridtjof Nansen, though the latter's strike-rate of 1-38 doesn't inspire confidence. WEE PABLO landed a Leopardstown handicap before an excellent run from 9lb higher at the Curragh then returned to winning ways at Listowel. He's up another 7lb but improving fast and can score again. Atlas does best when dropped into claiming company while Lord McZie's Navan victory was over 5f. The trio of three-year-olds at the bottom of the weights are all running well enough to get competitive.
