In depth
Verdict
Son Of Hypnos made all the running in the Galway fog last week, coming home strongly on the heavy ground. He's 6lb higher in likely different conditions but is still greatly respected. GALEOLA was in top form last summer, winning three out of four and only beaten a neck in a much better Curragh handicap. She had a year off before a run at Gowran last month and, with that under her belt, can resume winning ways. Nibblers Charm, a winning bumper and three times successful over hurdles including a very impressive victory at the Galway Festival, was well supported back on the level at Gowran but appeared to find 1m6f too short. Effernock Fizz had Ideal Pal behind when scoring on testing ground at Bellewstown then couldn't handle Listed company at Down Royal.
