Verdict

Tyrconnell went up 7lb for scoring over the track and trip in December and has been racing over a furlong shorter. CREST OF A WAVE (NAP) only showed moderate form in maidens before a much improved effort on her handicap debut when only just failing to hold the in-form Victorious Secret, who was receiving 14lb. Charles O'Brien's charge should make further progress and will be difficult to beat. Clonville was in winning form on Turf last summer but hasn't shown much on this surface so far unlike Very Smart, a winner at Down Royal in July and only just behind the selection last time. Tynamite is beginning to show a return to form and he can't go much lower in the ratings nor can course and distance winner Seeking Truth, whose only career victory came in 2016.
