Verdict

TEMPTATIONINMILAN confirmed previous promise when belatedly getting off the mark at Listowel 3 weeks ago, the application of cheekpieces seemingly the catalyst as he saw things out thoroughly. He gets the narrow vote to back that up and score again returning to this longer trip. Hoke Colburn and Touch of Oscar head up the dangers, along with Twilight Girl.
