In depth

Verdict

Mojambo has steadily improved and only succumbed to Check Your Pockets in the closing stages over track and trip last month. Smiling Eliza stayed on well into fourth, Lucky Red kept on at one pace into fifth, Itschessnotchekers finished best of all into sixth with Paparazzi and Viva Italia further behind. REALTIN GEAL showed her first real sign of form when fifth in a much better nursery at Leopardstown and has been dropped 2lb so could be good enough to make a successful debut on the surface in what could be a profitable day for Jim Bolger. Dowhatisay couldn't go the pace over 7f here last time but could do better over this extra furlong.
