Verdict
Whisperinthebreeze won a point in October and though third over hurdles at Gowran last month was beaten a long way and probably needs further. Crezic finished mid-division in a Navan maiden before reverting to a bumper at Limerick and making little impression. He should have some progress in him though I Am Sailing looks a better option at this stage. Mags Mullins' charge was lucky to win a point on his debut but ran well in a Navan bumper and normal progress should see him difficult to beat. However, he's owned by JP McManus who also has the once-raced AT YOUR EASE engaged and Barry Geraghty has chosen to ride Arthur Moore's charge, who was given a nice introduction at Leopardstown on St Stephen's Day. The owner also has the newcomer Drole D'artiste entered and the half-brother to two winners is one for the future.
