Verdict

New Vocation, the only course and distance winner in the line-up, is 1-8 on the track and has changed stables since third in a Gowran claimer. GIORNI FELICE easily landed a Navan handicap in July and has run well from an 11lb higher mark in subsequent races. He's only had one run here but can make it second-time lucky. Gormanston showed improved form behind Rockview Empress at Navan and has gone down 1lb in the ratings while Day Dreamin' is much better than she showed at Punchestown, where she missed the break badly, though she was behind the selection at Navan.
