Verdict
PINWOOD obviously knew his job on his debut on heavy ground at Listowel in September and was always travelling like a winner. The lack of a run shouldn't be a problem and he has a Group 3 entry next weekend. Orangey Red was the very impressive winner of a Limerick maiden last month and didn't enjoy stepping up to a mile on a return visit. The front-running Sufoof looks there to be shot at and Buzz Boy has been well beaten in both starts to date.
