Verdict
Chain Of Destiny showed marked improvement when placed behind Boher Road here ten days ago but has almost three lengths to find with runner-up Painters Palette, who couldn't quite get to the winner. Only For Me, runner-up in a Gowran maiden, led for a long way on his handicap debut at Tipperary but IMAGINARIUM looks the one to be on. Ger Lyons' charge made a very encouraging debut behind Rare Middleton at Leopardstown last weekend and normal progress should see him go one better.
