In depth

Verdict

Thia ran well in decent company at Cork and the Curragh last month and now wears a tongue-tie. The Bear Trap is certain to improve on his run at Navan while Joseph O’Brien saddles two. Oligopoly is by Havana Grey, who gets plenty of two-year-old winners, but HIGH MORALE missed the break and then ran green over track and trip 10 days ago and jockey bookings suggest he’s the stable selection. Spanish Flame finished well ahead of Bhean Saibhre when a promising fourth at Leopardstown but his yard has yet to strike form.
