Verdict

Downdraft has been racing over further but his last run was in the Group 1 Grand Prix de Paris and Joseph O’Brien’s three-year-old is the highest rated of these. CHARCOR is totally unexposed and beat a subsequent winner at Gowran – his shrewd handler wouldn’t be running him here without good reason. Honor Oak won a Galway handicap by eight lengths, when Tony The Gent was a disappointing favourite, before finishing third at Cork and Koybig was second in a big field here on Wednesday. The others may have a bit to find on the form book.
