Verdict

Count Of Limonade has won three from eight and probably produced his best run so far when third to Leading Light in a Curragh Group 3 last time with Fighter Squadron just behind. DIBAYANI had also been beaten by Leading Light earlier when Fighter Squadron was over 2l back in third so a line through the latter just gives him the edge and he's taken to come out on top. The remainder are in good form and progressing nicely though this represents a step-up in grade for all.
