Verdict

Ferrybank looked one to follow after making all for a comfortable maiden victory over the track and trip and started odds-on for his handicap debut over 7f but pulled much too hard and was soon done with. Sloane Peterson beat the useful Mooneista at Cork in August and will be better for her comeback on the same track when the favourite Forest Of Dreams was beaten 4 lengths into fourth and Bell I Am just behind. Aidan O'Brien's charge should improve enough to take a hand but this can go to LET'S. Ken Condon's filly was beaten a length by today's rival Aikido over 7f here in November but was in the lead at this trip and is 7lb better off despite winning here next time. Erosandpsyche was engaged in the 5.10 at Tipperary yesterday.
