Verdict

Off the mark at the fifth time of asking in a Gowran Park 1m1½f handicap earlier in the month, FINDING NERO can progress again with the step up in trip expected to suit. The Ado McGuinness-trained, Royal Admiral produced a couple of solid and consistent displays last month can be the main danger, while, Misty Mille and Cork Harbour look the best of the rest.
  1. Finding Nero
  2. Royal Admiral
  3. Misty Millie
