Verdict

Match Play found fast going against him over the minimum trip at Leicester and this extra furlong should suit. Stablemate Catch The Paddy is by No Nay Never out of a mare who has produced winners with her first two offspring. Mickey Mongoose cost 150,000gns and he's out of a Grade 3 winner at around a mile but a chance is taken with PAPA RICCO, from a stable in form and a half-brother to juvenile winner Batz. Thunder Cat is from the first crop of Roaring Lion out of a Group 2-winning two-year-old while the filly Oh Sweet Tabu cost 32,000gns as a foal and three times as much as a yearling. The No Nay Never filly Queen Olly cost a massive €300,000 and is a half-sister to 6f and 7f winner Schooner Ridge.
