Verdict

COILLTE CAILIN may just edge a competitive contest for Daniel Loughnane's in-form yard. She finished ahead of Yul Finegold when runner-up last time and also got the better of both Corton Lad and Pactolus when landing a double before that, including a success over course and distance. There is little between Pactolus and Fit The Bill on collateral form with the former preferred dropping back down in class while Freud can also be given a chance only 3lb higher than his earlier victory over track and trip.
