Verdict

MEANINGFUL VOTE was a 33/1 chance when gaining a shock nursery victory on testing ground at Galway in October but is only 2lb higher and his stable has been among the winners. Homecoming showed some ability at Dundalk and will have come on for last week's run at Gowran but both Ivaquestion and No Days Off ran at Leopardstown on Sunday without showing. Siradjan showed his first sign of form at Dundalk in February and has had the regulation three maiden runs as has Ya Ya Baby and both can improve while any money for Sideshift should be noted as his yard have had well-supported winners in the past few days.
