Verdict

One of the races Dermot Weld has a good record in and KEEP IN TOUCH can emulate her dam with victory at Galway following a very promising debut at Naas. Roman Hands has more to offer on his third outing for a stable who had a memorable day here on Monday. Thunderbear and newcomer Mount King are respected also.
