Verdict

€215,000 purchase MANAMITE appears to have had plenty of issues in his brief career but if he is over them he could still be a smart prospect so he gets the nod here. Suinda is one of several hurdles newcomers who could be a danger given her impressive bumper win. In the same category is Advantage Point who won well at Punchestown.
  1. Manamite
