In depth

Verdict

Ravenhill looks best of Gordon Elliott's pair though he has a bit more to do than when successful in maiden and novice company. Stable companion Midnight Escape had been running poorly over fences before a moderate effort back over timber at Downpatrick. High Nellie is 1-31 over hurdles and, after a fine run at Gowran, reverted to type when pulling up here. Jazz Mine had shown little in handicaps before a very easy victory when stepped up to 2m6f at Killarney but this can go to GLOCCA MORA (NAP). Joseph O'Brien's charge has been gradually improving and battled on to catch Shetland Bus over this trip at Cork.
