Verdict

Having ended 2022 on the up, KERKIYRA produced a solid comeback effort when third in a Curragh Group 3 in March and with the step back up in trip rating a likely plus, she could be the answer. Moon de Vega, an impressive winner on stable debut at Gowran, can also figure, whilst Salt Lake City remains low-mileage now embarking on his 3-y-o campaign and is respected in receipt of weight all round.

  1. KERKIYRA (IRE)
  2. MOON DE VEGA
  3. SALT LAKE CITY (IRE)
