In depth

Verdict

Several of these have been disappointing, including TIRGHA, though she appeared to run a bit better behind Duchess Of Andorra at Listowel. That was the first time she's faced quick ground for a while and today's conditions should be ideal so she's handed the vote to finally get off the mark. First Sitting looked a sure-fire future winner when runner-up to Illusive at Leopardstown but didn't handle faster ground at the Curragh next time. He still looks good for a place as Pershing is now on his third trainer and has been competing at all sorts of distances. The remainder will all need to improve though Tommy Stack's once-raced Salariaq showed promise at Killarney and wouldn't need much more to make her presence felt.
