Verdict

Geneva Barracks was a fortuitous maiden winner at Gowran Park when last spotted but may be capable of showing more now going handicapping, something that Lex Talionis did recently at Fairyhouse, with further improvement liable to thrust him into the frame. That race was won by Russian Roulette, who will likely have a say again, but runner-up YOUNGNEDOFTHEHILL has been consistent lately and is capable of delivering a late challenge to good effect that might be enough to see him collecting the spoils. Ronava and The Irregular are also of some interest.
  1. Youngnedofthehill
