Verdict

EMPHASIS was very green on his debut here but was not beaten far and can improve enough to take this. Nine Lives also ran well in what looked a strong maiden on the same card though already had experience. Formal Display made a very promising debut at the Curragh and was not disgraced in Group 2 company at Leopardstown so has to be a threat. The Old Nine went for 110,000gns as a foal and 360,000gns as a yearling. He is related to five winners and has to be respected along with Going Remote, who was staying on at Naas. Cathal looks the type to improve markedly from his Curragh debut.
