In depth

Verdict

Prince Jock made a successful raid overseas when scoring at Hamilton last time but this is tougher while Teoirim was all out to hold on for victory at Leopardstown and is up 6lb for that. Castle Guest won a lesser grade handicap at the same track recently and has more on his plate here but Tropical Mist can race off the same mark as when runner-up to Majestic Jasmine last week and has claims on that form. MOREDANMIJOBSWORTH kept on well to land the spoils over the mile trip at Naas three weeks ago and Ger Lyons' consistent gelding gets the nod as there looks more to come over middle-distances.
