Verdict
Leo Minor finished second at Gowran on his debut but the winner and the third have both been beaten since. It may turn out SEA OF GRACE has the stronger form after finishing third at the Curragh on her recent debut when clear of the rest. John Oxx’ filly is also preferred to the newcomer Eziyra, who like the aforementioned pair, has a Group 1 entry later in the year. It’s difficult to see any of the remainder getting into this with Pindaric perhaps best of them.
