Verdict

Scamall Bawn had a bit in hand when scoring at Cork and though third-placed Toor Khov has the better of the weights the result can be confirmed. THE ENABLER finished runner-up at Curraghmore in April and the winner subsequently went for £200,000 at the sales. Gordon Elliott‘s charge then ran into another decent one at Thurles last month and should get off the mark. I Am Mimi is one to keep an eye on for the in-form Gavin Cromwell as he went for a massive £155,000 as a three-year-old and is the first foal of a mare from a smart jumping family in France.
