Verdict

Though his breakthrough success was a long time coming, FIRST CLASS RETURN did the job in good style over C&D last week and it's hard to envisage him being turned over under a penalty. His Dream will appreciate this step back up in trip and better ground, and he is marginally preferred to Commit Or Quit for forecast purposes.

  1. FIRST CLASS RETURN (IRE)
  2. HIS DREAM (IRE)
  3. COMMIT OR QUIT (IRE)
