    Verdict

    KHADAASH ran a nice race when fourth to Sam’s Choice at Clonmel last month and wouldn’t need much more to open his account in this. Fiadh placed at Kelso in May having a first run for Chris Grant and may have more to offer while Dear Alix has shown promise in a couple of starts here and makes more appeal than the returning Big Changes. Rocket Robbo is a newcomer worth a market check.
