Verdict
MR COSMOPOLITAN made a sparkling debut behind the favourite Blissful Moment at Navan last month when the rest were well beaten. With further progress likely he can go one better at the expense of Raise Hell. The latter was beaten a long way when runner-up to the very useful Defy Logic at Fairyhouse but his earlier form entitles him to the greatest respect in a race where not many have the form to win. Moyne Nineoseven showed nothing on his only start over hurdles but has done better in a couple of bumper races subsequently while Shannon Spirit, who has shown a bit of dash over timber, is reverting from a poor spell over fences.
