Verdict

KILBARRY SAINT likely would have got a bit closer to the winner at Gowran had his rider not dropped his whip between the last 2 and he's taken to build on that promising run and get off the mark. A Nod To Getaway and Knockbrack Rambler are respected on the back of good in-frame efforts last month, while Irish Impulse is a possible improver in handicaps.
