Verdict

Plunkett has yet to win but ran very well at Gowran and would have finished closer but for being impeded. Another maiden, Chimeric, was only beaten a short-head over the course and distance before a decent effort on softer ground in a Galway handicap. Dark Design followed a Gowran success with a good run here where he led 2f out until inside the final furlong. Sansevero Chapel caught the eye on his return to action at Leopardstown but this can go to LISABETTA. She gave notice of an imminent victory when a close fifth at Cork and was well supported at Gowran where she needed every yard of that 7f so a 4lb rise looks manageable over this more suitable trip.
