Verdict
Mini Vic did nothing wrong when runner-up in a similar event at Clonmel and should improve enough to make his presence felt. He holds Skibabe on that run while Alasty ran poorly on heavy ground at Naas after much better form earlier on faster going. Honour Bay showed plenty of pace on his comeback at Navan and will be better for the run but this can go to THE WAY WE WERE as Edward O'Grady's charge produced a promising performance on his debut at Naas in February and the experience will have done him good.
