Verdict
David Wachman has won two of the last three and Canberra Cliffs caught the eye with late progress over 6f at the Curragh. Epitaph didn't enjoy the soft ground at Bellewstown and is likely to do much better while Hailstone hasn't done much wrong, though will need to make significant improvement to take a hand. LOST IN SILENCE was always travelling nicely at Limerick and, though unable to match the speed of the well-supported Ellery Lane, ran on nicely and can go one better. Wings Of Eagles cost 220,000 euros and is a half-brother to three winners in France. This looks an ideal trip to start off with and he rates a big threat.
