Verdict

Both SHERWOOD FOREST and Hasty Katie made promising starts in decent maidens and will have improved for the experience. The former, who is related to a host of useful winners, missed the break behind stablemate Rudolf Valentino at Naas and wasn't given a hard time while Jim Bolger's filly showed good pace behind Ballydoyle's useful Wild Wind at the Curragh and looks certain to win races. Emotional Dream will probably need further in time but Irish Kitten has plenty of pace in his pedigree and is one to keep an eye on.
