Verdict

INVINCIBLE DIVA made such a promising start behind Mount Fuji at Cork that she's very difficult to oppose as there's every chance she'll be suited by the much softer conditions. St George's Head has been well beaten in his two starts on Turf after a fair debut at Dundalk while Buachaill Or finished last on his debut at Navan and was beaten 15 lengths into third on a return visit. Flight Command ran in snatches at the Curragh but has a nice pedigree and could be the one for the forecast.
