Verdict
Power Under Me made a very impressive debut over the track and trip beating Coulthard just over two lengths. The runner-up then won a little race at Santa Anita so the form looks strong. Only Spoofing won a Goodwood handicap for Jedd O'Keeffe last summer and new connections should find a race for the eight-times winner but FOREST OF DREAMS could be a blot on the handicap. Aidan O'Brien's colt was impressive when landing a Navan maiden and wasn't beaten far when tackling Group 2 company at the Curragh. Rough Diamond made a successful debut at the Curragh so the lack of a recent run shouldn't be a problem while Pretty Boy Floyd, a dual winner at the Curragh in the autumn, started favourite on a return visit last week but found 5f too short.
