        Verdict

        Japan won this for Ballydoyle last year after an initial run and LOUISIANA can follow suit after a promising run on this sort of ground at Gowran. Maker Of Kings couldn't catch Aidan O'Brien's Sherpa at Roscommon but had the remainder well beaten while Sheckhem has been unfortunate to come up against some decent winners. The filly Soineanta was a 33/1 chance at Cork and didn't show much but she'll have come on nicely for the experience.
