Verdict

WATCHMAN makes a quick reappearance after staying on strongly over 1m2f at Navan on Wednesday and looks to have a very good chance of reversing earlier form with You'llfindandsee over this trip at Cork. Beaten almost five lengths, he's 14lb better off with the winner which should be enough. Vivalicious, who makes her handicap debut, hasn't run badly in two starts after a long break while Indian Eye has dropped to such a lowly mark that she has to be respected. Bajan Excell showed a bit more on soft ground at Gowran and could run into a place.
