Verdict

COLFER ME was a handicap debut winner last time out and he is taken to defy top weight to take this highly competitive nursery contest. The selection has to defy a 10lb rise in the weights but looks capable of doing so and he can see off Rathmoylan Cove who finished runner-up in that Down Royal event. Third place can go to Elusive Fantasy who can step up on previous efforts for a yard in good form at present.
  1. Colfer Me
  2. Rathmoylan Cove
  3. Elusive Fantasy
