Verdict
Tennessee Wildcat has had 26 starts here for his three victories and is on a long losing run, though looked back to form when narrowly beaten at Tipperary. Quick Quick is still a maiden but was only just beaten in a claimer here a fortnight ago and has changed yards. Gormanston was unlucky in-running over the extended 1m2f track here last time and should make a bold bid to shed his maiden tag while Rotokura has been going well on Turf and, if transferring that form, to Polytrack should get into the action. LITTLE CAMACHO (NAP) has never won but was having only his second start since January when a close third behind Chagall last month and, with Colin Keane booked, can finally get off the mark.
