Verdict

There was plenty to like about Grigal's second here on good ground in June though she faces much more testing conditions. Roaming Star will improve from her run at Dundalk in February while First Gentleman, a half-brother to a Group 3 winner over this trip, is a newcomer to note. However, this looks between RUN RAN RUN, a short-head second on heavy going at Naas last month, and Desert Heather, who finished just behind in third with the former taken to confirm the form.
