Verdict

There was plenty to like about the way CORK HARBOUR got the job done at Clonmel nine days ago and there should be more improvement to come from Billy Lee's mount over this extra yardage, enough to ensure he gets the nod to defy his penalty. Pegi Browne wasn't far behind him and that represented an improved showing from her. Recent Tipperary winner Rock On Seamie is another for whom this longer trip can be a plus along with Happy Company, while Royal Admiral lurks as a possible improver also upped in distance.
