    Verdict

    War Envoy is the only three-year-old in the line-up and though he's only won once he's been operating at a very high level and has found soft ground against him in France on his last two starts. Brendan Brackan is penalised for a Listed victory at Cork but has won in a higher grade and will have needed his comeback at the Curragh in April. Captain Joy was in superb form on Polytrack over the winter and was only narrowly beaten in the All-Weather Mile Championship at Lingfield, though he was well beaten in this a year ago. Tennessee Wildcat won a couple of Dundalk handicaps before a better run when carrying a big weight in a premier handicap at the Curragh and has run well at this level in the past. MY TITANIA looked potentially very useful when landing a Group 3 as a two-year-old but only had two starts last season, when a close fourth in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot and narrowly beaten in a Group 2 at the Curragh. She has several big race entries and hopefully can justify them by taking this.
