In depth
Verdict
FIGLIO D'ARTE (NAP) never got close enough to mount a challenge over an extended 1m1f at Gowran but stayed on nicely and his pedigree is all about middle-distances so this should be his trip. He looks capable of attaining a higher rating and can get off the mark. Stellify has been struggling from this sort of mark and needs some rain but Summer Pearl made a very promising return to action and handicap debut behind Matilda With Me at Limerick and should get into the mix. Angel In The Sky was returning from a year off when beaten less than a length at Fairyhouse after attempting to make all. That was only her sixth run despite her age so she should get involved.
