Verdict
SATURN FIVE made a very promising debut at Roscommon a couple of weeks ago where he had the much more experienced Prophets Voice and Zoffman behind. Joseph O'Brien's charge can take this with normal progress though Nostringsattached also made an eye-catching debut at the Curragh and has the fillies' allowance to aid her cause. Pollanassa didn't enjoy testing conditions at Cork after a promising start at Tipperary and looks best of the remainder.
