Verdict

Considering he was beaten less than a length in the 2016 St Leger, HOUSESOFPARLIAMENT can be considered a relative disappointment over timber but he's off a good mark here and ran a decent race last time behind the useful Good Thyne Tara at Ballinrobe with those behind comfortably accounted for. He pulled off a shoe that day too so the effort can be marked up and he may prove too classy for this opposition. Lasoscar has no stamina doubts over 3m and continues to perform with credit in similar contests while Top Of The Town, High Nellie and Toushan are all noteworthy. But the main danger could well come from Hey Little Boy as he was noted making late progress at Killarney when last seen in May and looks a lightly-raced improver for the champion trainer.
