Most of these have had enough chances including BLUEBEARD'S CASTLE, though at least he proved he stays the tip when staying on late ten day's ago when getting going too late. Tooreen Angel finished in front of him on two days earlier but that was over 1m2f and the latter has yet to prove she stays this far. Swift Wing finished runner-up over the trip at Newcastle when trained in the UK and found the extended 1m2f track too short on his first start for new connections in a claimer here while Lady Ironside hasn't been running badly in testing conditions on Turf. Swift Verdict, who showed potential for John Gosden, didn't handle heavy going or 1m6f when well supported on his debut for Willie Mullins at Gowran.
