Verdict

GHERKIN showed up nicely on his reappearance minus his usual headgear 3 weeks ago and with the blinkers back on, he's expected to take a step forward, Catherine Chroi has already had an excellent 2024 but her new mark and a penalty asks for more, so Captain Dandy is feared most.

  1. GHERKIN
  2. CAPTAIN DANDY (IRE)
