Verdict

RELEVANT RANGE made a promising start over 7f here before runner-up over this trip on a return visit. Normal progress should see him difficult to beat though Chesterton made an encouraging debut over 7f at Gowran despite looking in need of experience. Hernes Hill showed up well in both starts over 7f at Dundalk in the autumn so the drop in trip shouldn't be a problem while the experienced Shoebox King ran better than expected in a Naas premier handicap earlier this month. Un Bacio Ancora showed some potential last season and her pedigree suggests she can do better this year.
