Verdict

FREEDOM SQUARE made a promising start over 5f in a very strong maiden here but ran very green and faded close home over 7f at Gowran. He should be ready for this and gets the nod though Dove Mountain, by Danehill Dancer out of 1000 Guineas winner Virginia Waters, is sure to attract major support. Beauty's Forte, a son of Kyllachy, should have plenty of pace and Bush Pilot is another to note.
