Verdict

O'CONNELL STREET was better than the result when runner-up at this course on handicap debut and should benefit from the drop back in trip, so he's a confident choice to go one better at the likely expense of Makka Pakka, who also arrives on the back of a positive initial outing in this sphere. The other trio have something to prove.
