Verdict

Angel Palm needed the experience at Leopardstown then made no mistake on a return visit, coming home clear of a couple of smart-looking fillies. Aunt Bridy made a successful debut at the Curragh and still looked in need of experience in the Moyglare where she didn't get the run of the race but still had A Ma Chere behind. Sense Of Style stayed on strongly to land a Naas maiden but takes on better company but Thinking Of You took a while to get going at Limerick though finished powerfully once the penny dropped. NO SPEAK ALEXANDER (NAP) couldn’t quite hold Monday in a Leopardstown Listed contest but acts on any ground and that form looks good enough for this.
