    Verdict

    Richard Hannon has a host of winning juveniles under his command so the fact that he sends SACHA PARK here is significant. He was sent to Salisbury for a maiden last month and was strongly fancied but found Saayerr too strong. He didn't have the clearest of runs and can make amends though the home challenge, though limited in numbers, looks strong. Stubbs appeared to enjoy the soft ground at Navan and could hardly have won more easily while Club Wexford wasn't beaten far by Coach House in a Listed contest at the Curragh. All Set To Go has a bit to find but caught the eye on his debut and should be winning soon.
