Verdict

Macho Mover won races in Ireland but drops into a seller on just his second start for Olly Murphy. RIGHT DESTINATION is still a maiden but has placed four times over timber and was fourth in a handicap around here last month. Fergal O’Brien’s charge is also preferred to an out-of-sorts Secret Potion and Rock And Bel who is making his debut under Rules at the age of eight.
