      Verdict

      John Oxx saddles three of the five entries. Sing Like The Sea made a promising start at Navan but didn't handle faster going at Leopardstown while Remembered Joy has been well beaten in both starts. The newcomer Yug has a nice pedigree for middle-distances but this should go to AIR SUPREMACY. Aidan O'Brien's son of Galileo has had two races in quick succession, catching the eye on his debut over 1m2f on this track before narrowly beaten by the older Zanjabeel at Bellewstown last week where he didn't enjoy the run of the race. Ringside Support may chase him home as he was staying on when behind the selection here last month.
