Verdict

AERIALIST is a €400,000 son of Sea The Stars out of a Group Three winner and though finishing mid-division on his debut at the Curragh back in March showed plenty of promise and has been given a long break by Jim Bolger. He can start reaching his potential and take this. Beauty's Forte has had an even longer break having been absent since a couple of runs last autumn at Dundalk where he showed plenty of promise. Danz Gift couldn't handle Sweetest Taboo at Tipperary but that was a much improved run and better is expected but Tracey Collins must be despairing of getting a race out of Chiclet. She travels well in her races but finds little under pressure though she's been beaten by some decent performers and it would be no shock if she held on with Pat Smullen taking over the reins for the first time.
