Verdict

The three-year-old ALFREDO ARCANO bounced back to form to beat Aggression in a driving finish a fortnight ago and is better off at the weights as the latter went one better a week ago. He can follow up as Oneoveryou was beaten 2l and looks held, even on better terms. Captain Dion won twice on the all-weather and three times on Turf for Kevin Ryan and makes his debut for Fergal Birrane while Lapilli is three from five in the UK and was having only his second start in a year when a close fourth behind My Good Brother here in September. Geological very rarely runs over the minimum trip these days.
