Verdict

Change Of Velocity attracted support on his debut in what looked a very strong 7f Curragh maiden won by The Pentagon. He couldn't really go the pace on the fast ground so the longer trip will suit, though the winner's stable have three entered here. Coat Of Arms led until headed over 1f out over this course and distance last month, a big improvement on his opening run, though the yard's two newcomers may have the edge. Delano Roosevelt is by Galileo out of the Irish 1000 Guineas winner Again but it's NELSON, a son of Frankel out of the Irish Oaks winner Moonstone and related to a couple of Group 3 winners, who gets the nod to make a winning start. Ger Lyons has his horses flying so the 340,000 euros Overcoming, who is related to three winners, is one to keep an eye on.
