Verdict

Paradise Perfect finished last in a strong Curragh handicap where he found 1m1f much too far having been in good form over shorter. Freedom Falls finished last in two recent handicaps having earlier produced a good run in a Listowel maiden. WOODEN HEAD looks best of the older horses having made a very pleasing debut at Cork and he can improve enough to take this unless one of the newcomers is decent. John Feane can get one ready and Lady Fox is a daughter of Caravaggio while Rattletheonionbag is very speedily-bred.
