Verdict
KILCRUIT was ridden by Patrick Mullins when finishing runner-up to his father's Captain Kangaroo at Clonmel in March and the champion trainer has acquired him from his brother Tony. He looks a nice prospect and should get off the mark for the yard. Alko Rouge was beaten by a smart one at Leopardstown but may bump into another here while Ballycairn fell on his debut in a point in March. Killer Mode is by Doyen and has a nice pedigree so looks one to keep an eye on.
