Verdict
Nero Tulip has shown plenty of potential in both starts without looking like winning, the latest behind a stable companion when Level Pitch was well beaten. He may need a bit further but still looks a contender though LEINSTER HOUSE looks to have been found an ideal starting point. A son of War Front out of a Group 1 winner who produced a two-year-old Listed winner with her first offspring, he can get off the mark though he holds no big race entries. Brown Eagle was up with the pace throughout when tackling 7f at the Curragh so the shorter trip won't be a problem
