In depth

Verdict

Torthai An Ghra stayed on over 7f at Down Royal so it's a surprise to see him dropping back in trip for his handicap debut. ZEBED has been running in better company and, though looking high enough in the weights, she had Lady Mandeville and Spirit Stone behind at Bellewstown and can take this for John Oxx. Lady Mandeville is up 5lb for her subsequent Down Royal victory over 7f, when Royal County Boy was behind, but led at the furlong pole so should be speedy enough to get involved. Not Really makes her nursery debut and has been performing reasonably well in decent maidens so is another to consider in an open contest.
