Verdict

I Know I Can, impressive when first past in a Sligo maiden, was disqualified and placed last after a providing a prohibited substance. Balmari, placed in three of his four starts on this track last backend, probably wasn't suited by testing ground on his return at Gowran last month. SOLENE LILYETTE led for a long way over 1m1f at Leopardstown so looks certain to be suited by this trip and gets the vote. Bluebeard's Castle, a full-brother to Group 2 winner Just Wonderful and an all-weather winner, is out of a Group 2 winner though has left the ownership of Coolmore.
