Verdict

HEISHYBRID is clearly going the right way and he is taken to open his account at the fourth time of asking. Next on the list is Dandy Magic, who has shaped well in a couple of sprint maidens and is likely to benefit from this step up in trip. Nobler could be the pick of the Joseph O'Brien-trained trio of newcomers, while Talgo Abbess showed promise on his debut at Bellewstown and is likely to come on for that run.

  1. HEISHYBRID
