Verdict

Mr Shelby, a winner at Ayr early last month, was headed on the post by Landline at Naas last week when A Likely Story and Nightflight brought up the minor places in a big field. However, he was engaged in the 4.00 at Naas yesterday so that result should be monitored. FOCUS OF ATTENTION was reappearing after a long break and making her debut for new connections when a close third over the minimum at Navan last month. She's surprisingly been dropped 1lb and looks ready to strike though Caesar's Comet, another who has changed yards, ran some fair races for Paul Midgley and should be winning soon. Clonville, who made most over 7f at Gowran in May, could prove best of the remainder.
