Verdict

Lieutenant Silver is the only course winner though his victory came over 1m2f. Happy Company doesn't win often and keeps going up in the weights though there was plenty to like about his run here last week. DAY DREAMIN' is still a maiden but has only had six starts and was unlucky in-running at Killarney last month. She's been left on the same mark but Gavin Ryan can do little wrong at present and his 5lb claim is invaluable. Oromo completed a double in good style in June and didn't quite get the run of the race on his hat-trick bid at the Curragh but King Christophe probably needs a bit further these days, a remark that also applies to the jumper Jaime Sommers.
