Buyin Buyin ran green at Dundalk but was still going away at the finish. Connections of His Majesty and Valiant Force will be hoping that Unquestionable boosts the form of their 1-2 over 5f here at the start of the month in the opener. However, Ryan Moore could probably have ridden the former in this and has, instead, chosen last month’s course and distance winner Democracy. NOCHE MAGICA was hugely impressive at Cork and, on collateral form, has the beating of the latter and Givemethebeatboys so gets the nod.
