In depth

Verdict

Born To Rule was below par at Cork on Sunday and is the most exposed in this. I Know I Can was first past the post at Sligo last month but returned a positive sample. He didn’t seem to enjoy the step up in trip when third at Dundalk subsequently and has another furlong to cover here. A half-sister to the stable’s winning miler Lightning Amber, APRICOT ROSE is not overtaxed on debut and could be too good for these. Moon Fever is another newcomer with a pedigree which suggests she’ll be very much at home over this trip with Chimeric probably best of the rest.
