Verdict

Hadman had shown ability in strong company before making all and just holding on over 7f at Gowran. That victory has already received a boost so he'll make a bold bid to defy a penalty. Up Above couldn't find a finishing burst at the Curragh last week but that looked a stronger maiden than this. Mary Pickersgill couldn't get close to Sacred Bridge here last week but the winner completed a double in a Listed race at Tipperary on Wednesday. The hugely expensive Heart To Heart has disappointed but Ger Lyons has his horses flying and GEOCENTRIC, a 160,000gns full-sister to three winners, is taken to make a successful debut.
