In depth

Verdict

KALOPSIA started favourite for her debut at Limerick in April and though running very well found one too good in Babbling Stream, who had been well supported. The remainder were in another parish so Aidan O'Brien's filly can go one better. Man Of Conquest hasn't been disgraced in two strong bumpers at Punchestown and Brosna George was staying on once the penny dropped at Killarney though a greater threat may come from one of the newcomers. Gordon Elliott runs Bellas Rock and Wellington Road and Jamie Codd's presence on the latter suggests the well connected son of Central Park could be the stable's pick. Royal Plaza has a conventional jumper's pedigree and is one to keep an eye on for the future.
