Verdict

GOOD EGG jumped superbly when making all at Fairyhouse last month and though many of his rivals arrive fresh from success between the flags his overall form in these events looks good enough. Salsify chased him for a long way that day but was eventually well beaten and is unlikely to reverse the form despite a better effort subsequently. Mister Philson is a useful performer between the flags but may find this pace too much for him while the youngster Mount Sion will need to improve on the form shown behind Viking Splash at Gowran though is likely to do so in time.
