Verdict

COMMANDANT sets the standard at the age of six following a short-head victory over C&D last month. The Presenting gelding never got in to a rhythm at Tipperary earlier this month, eventually falling away to finish sixth of eight. He can be forgiven that run and can get back to winning ways here holding off the attentions of Perfect Leader and Barna Venture.
