Verdict

KINGS CAVE has made a positive start under Rules and it's interesting that this ex-pointer makes an early switch to handicap chasing from what appears to be a fair mark. He's preferred to Who's In The Box, another unexposed sort, with Rock On Barney also worthy of respect.

  1. KINGS CAVE (IRE)
  2. WHO'S IN THE BOX (IRE)
  3. ROCK ON BARNEY (IRE)
