Verdict

Presenting Lad looks as though he needs further as does three-times Flat winner New Society while Mahons Glory was beaten 21 lengths when runner-up at Cork then was well beaten in a Thurles bumper. PAPAL LODGE, a winning bumper, hasn't done as well as expected over timber but this looks his easiest task so far and he can finally get off the mark. Rambranlt'jac would be an obvious threat if getting a run from his reserve spot but was engaged at Naas yesterday.
