Verdict

Planchart finished runner-up behind Shrill at Cork and the winner has since gone close in Listed company. She couldn't handle Group 3 class at the Curragh but wasn't disgraced and this should prove less demanding. Now Or Never's close second to Vitello at Fairyhouse was a cracking effort and she'll definitely improve as will AL QAHWA for his run at Naas where he looked very green. The latter is well regarded and expected to make that experience count over Al Mohalhal, who will be suited by further in time.
