Verdict

MR PERCY shaped well when second in a Ballinrobe maiden on debut for Joseph O'Brien and, with few miles on the clock, he's fancied to improve enough to defy an opening mark of 73. Market support for Toll Stone would be significant with him going up markedly in trip and another solid showing is expected from Magnetic North.

  1. MR PERCY (IRE)
  2. TOLL STONE (IRE)
  3. MAGNETIC NORTH (IRE)
