Inisherin backed up a Group 2 win at Haydock with a ready success in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot last June, although he was beaten twice at the top level subsequently. Having had a wind problem addressed since he was last seen, the son of Shamardal merits a close look here. Nevertheless, FLORA OF BERMUDA could be the way to go, as she is a previous C&D winner, who has done nothing but progress in the face of some high-profile assignments. The improving Night Raider could be the pick of Karl Burke's three contenders. |
This may well go to INISHERIN, who needs to stage a mini-revival on this seasonal debut and first run since having had a wind op but who will be tough to beat if Kevin Ryan (who does so well with sprinters) has him back to the level of his decisive win in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup at Ascot in June. Trip and ground here are ideal and the chance looks worth taking that Ryan has his colt fully primed for this presigious Group 2 prize. Elite Status, who is in the same ownership as the selection, is next best, ahead of stablemate Night Raider, who has a big chance on his AW form but needs to show he can cut it on turf too albeit after only three previous tries on it. Flora Of Bermuda is best of the rest. |

Ended last season on a low-key note, though had excuses (especially the ground) last time; very classy at his best and has won first time out both previous campaigns. |
