Verdict

Cabarete came up against an above average three-year-old in Verawal at Down Royal and was well beaten but his earlier runs put him right in the frame for this. Celtic Artisan was 3l behind in that latter event and on his next start just saw off CREDULOUS at Listowel. Gordon Elliott's runner-up was making his racecourse debut that day so looks certain to improve and is handed the vote. Tarabiyn was only just behind Cabarete at Roscommon last month, when the favourite Lady Clitico was beaten around 6l, and can also reverse the placings as he was making his debut over timber while Hannah's Magic may do best of the newcomers despite being a maiden on the Flat.
