      Verdict

      Democracy is having his first run away from the Curragh and was a disappointing favourite in a nursery last time. Stablemate BRILLIANT has been brought along quietly but she made it third-time lucky at Leopardstown last month and is well worth a try in this higher grade given she’s already shown she handles the mud. Deepone is 2-2 and won’t surrender his unbeaten record without a struggle. Apart from Courageous Strike, the remainder were all winners last time with Warnie possibly the pick having easily beaten Captain Maverick at Bellewstown a month ago.
