Verdict
Sir Allen had Teagarden Jazz two lengths behind when runner-up to Blood Destiny at Cork and both should improve massively for the run as should fourth-placed Libby, who only weakened from the last. Gordon Elliott is also represented by CALICO, who sets the standard after her best run to date when a close second in an Aintree Listed contest. Morning Soldier made a promising debut behind the useful Nusret here last month while John McConnell's acquistion Mary Cassatt had some decent form in France. Sinbad Le Marin has joined Willie Mullins after scoring at Chantilly in May and his pedigree suggests he should have more basic speed than most of these.
