Verdict

Viscount Wilson left previous form behind when only beaten half-a-length at Naas last month. Any improvement on that would put him bang in the firing-line but CLAREGATE STREET looks a dangerous opponent on his neck second at Clonmel. He was put up 3lb for that but is still preferred to the Elliott four-year-old. Castletown Quary started favourite on his handicap debut at Fairyhouse and connections will be looking to recoup losses while a case can also be made for Niccolai on his best form.
