Verdict
AMEN KORNER is by Yeats out of the high-class Feathard Lady and is a brother to the very smart Augusta Kate. He looks to have been found a decent opportunity to make a successful debut. Chef Afef showed nothing in his first two starts but was only beaten a neck by Castle Oliver, who runs earlier, at Fairyhouse. Conflated couldn't quite get to Benruben at Leopardstown but is likely to make progress but Sempo may provide the main threat. He was staying on strongly behind Exit Poll on the latter track and Derek O'Connor is on board again.
