Verdict
Yellow Dandy has plenty of pace but faces a difficult task on her reappearance. Measured Approval scored over the minimum trip at Dundalk before finding 7f too far at Gowran so this could be his optimum distance. Suspect Device doesn't look badly treated and his jockey's claim will help but Good Shot Noreen doesn't look particularly well in on her handicap debut though there is probably more to come from Tommy Stack's filly. CROWNED SUPREME is a couple of pounds out of the handicap but was having only her second start for Pat Hughes when runner-up to Amour Fe at Cork and has every chance of going one better.
