Verdict

Kevin Prendergast won this last year and his newcomer When Not Iff, who is out of a mare who scored over a mile as a juvenile, is one to note. Going Gaga finished last of five behind Machaputo at Tipperary but wasn't beaten far and that was a hot race. BOB YOUNGER made his debut over 6f at Naas last month and though unable to cope with easy winner Song Of Time he was staying on at the finish suggesting tonight's trip is just what is required. Bellau was unfancied on her opening run at Navan but did better than expected with a promising effort behind Emperor Hadrian and will have come on for the experience.
