Verdict

DELIGHTFUL, a full-sister to three classic winners, attempted to make all over this trip on soft ground at Gowran but was caught close home. She'll need to improve again but is likely to do so and gets the vote though her stable companion Savethelastdance is by Galileo and the first foal of a USA Grade 1 winner. Foniska stepped up on her debut run to finish second to the Ballydoyle newcomer Be Happy at Cork. The third had finished just in front of the selection at Gowran so there's little between them. Pink Sorrel kept on strongly to finish a close third over 7f at Punchestown and the runner-up has won subsequently while Drummin Life completely missed the break at Galway and was staying on at the finish. Skyquake finished second in a Dundalk barrier trial so isn't without experience.
