In depth
Verdict
Ballydoyle have finally started to fire on all cylinders and have had plenty of juvenile winners in the past week. Johnny Murtagh has chosen MASTER OF HOUNDS over Sherwood Forest and the Kingmambo colt can recoup losses sustained when a short-priced favourite in better races at Leopardstown and the Curragh. His stablemate could follow him home as he looked in need of the experience yet still showed promise behind Rudolf Valentino at Naas. Hanginthebalance looks best of the remainder.
