      Verdict

      Yes I Am made a winning start at Dundalk in February but hasn't been seen since. Windward Passage has won two of his last three starts so can't be discounted but Fiscal Focus and Ruler Of France arrive out of sorts. ABUSHAMAH (NAP) finished well ahead of the latter when fourth at Galway last month. That's possibly the best piece of recent form on offer so Kevin Prendergast's colt gets the vote today.
