Verdict
Conclusion easily landed a Limerick maiden before a disappointing effort at Tipperary and has something to prove. Mazzuri, beaten a short-head on her debut, scored by the same margin in a Gowran maiden and was carrying a big weight in a strong handicap at Down Royal where she wasn't disgraced. CHECK YOUR POCKETS stepped up to 1m1f at Tipperary where she raced on fast going for the first time and won a handicap with plenty in hand. She's been raised 7lb but looks set to complete a double. House Call is still a maiden but didn't run at all badly in a premier handicap at the Curragh and should be getting off the mark soon, as should Raphael, also a maiden but not beaten far in decent company this campaign.
