Verdict

Aidan O'Brien won this last year with Roderic O'Connor and is triple-handed here. Among Equals started odds-on at Cork but was very disappointing and though David Livingston ran reasonably well behind Zip Top at Leopardstown it could be the Ballydoyle newcomer LEARN, a son of Galileo, who comes out best of the trio and he gets the vote. Jimtown showed the benefit of his opening run with a better effort behind Teolane at Lepardstown while All Approved ran well behind Tarsisio at Limerick and is certain to come on for the experience.
