In depth

Verdict

Neil Drysdale has a strong hand with all three representatives having a chance and COSMO preferred. The latter improves with every start and after finding only one too good in similar company here last time, he gets the nod ahead of stablemates Capital Call and Reprobate. Whirl Candy is another with claims having faded into fourth in the closing stages here in March while Rio Ocho and Tallien went close when trained in Ireland and both debut for new connections. Premier League has been gelded since a moderate debut effort here last year but the $632,000 Animal Kingdom progeny shouldn’t be written off just yet.
