        Verdict

        Seamie Heffernan returns after his ban and has chosen HARVARD of Aidan O'Brien's two entries. Odds-on for his debut over 7f at Leopardstown, the half-brother to the brilliant Tepin ran very green and will have come on a bundle for the experience. Kauri Cliffs stayed on strongly over 7f over 7f at Galway and is another certain to improve while Oh So Fine will find this trip much more to her liking than the 7f at Galway. The selection's stable companion Malawi is by Galileo and related to several winners while Vocito looks best of Jim Bolger's pair with Kevin Manning on board. Wuqood has a very nice pedigree being by Dubawi and a half-brother to the Listed winner Rakan and Liffey River, who cost €380,000, is out of a mare who has produced winners with her first four offspring, all very useful.
