    Verdict

    Betterdaysrcoming was a tough and consistent juvenile who was probably over the top on his only disappointing effort at the end of a seven-race juvenile campaign. There is a possible doubt about him on this ground though. Galway winner Serious Challenge was far from disgraced when fourth of five behind Auguste Rodin in Group 2 company on Irish Champions weekend and has a strong claim here, but a chance is taken with SPREWELL, who shaped really well on both starts in decent maiden company as a juvenile when looking every inch like a good three-year-old in the making. Zoinnocent was not disgraced when highly tried as a juvenile either and is far from ruled out, especially with Joseph O'Brien choosing to claim 7lb off the filly in what looks quite a trappy finale for punters.
