In depth

Verdict

Winning bumper Hallowed Star was beaten a short-head in a Navan maiden but ran poorly on his handicap debut at Punchestown. We'll Go Again has been well beaten in all three starts over timber but has been running well on the Flat in recent weeks. Winning bumper Good Time Jonny hasn't shown much in testing conditions over timber but could be suited by the likely better ground. POWERFUL OUT (NAP) finished with a flourish at Navan where a bad mistake two out probably cost her the race so she can gain compensation. The Virginian's close second at Wexford last month puts him in the frame despite a later poor run on the Flat.
