Verdict

MOONMEISTER hasn't been in the winner's enclosure for a long time, but there were definite signs his turn may be just around the corner following his fourth in a claimer here 12 days ago. He's sure to come on from that, and this step up in trip looks sure to suit. Storm Steps is yet to be out of the frame in 4 starts here so rates as the main threat, ahead of Bell Manannan.

  1. MOONMEISTER (IRE)

  3. BELL MANANNAN (IRE)
