Verdict

DIVELMENT showed fair form on turf last season and having run to a similar level with back-to-back third-place finishes at Dundalk earlier this year, he's the one to beat on first start since being gelded. Personified looks an interesting contender upped in trip, with stablemate Royal Sapphire one to keep an eye on in the betting.

9	Finished third in a Dundalk maiden before proving no match for a fairly useful Joseph O'Brien pair in a conditions race there in late-February. Returns in a change of headgear following a gelding operation and sets a fair standard. 1st Pick 9 Divelment (Ire) Jockey: G. M. Ryan Trainer: Jack W. Davison, Ireland J: G. M. Ryan T: Jack W.

3	Well-bred filly took a significant step forward when third on handicap bow at Dundalk and having shaped as though still in form when fourth of 13 at Bellewstown (1m) last time, she's a likely player upped in trip. 2nd Pick 3 Personified (Ire) Jockey: R.

4	Son of Australia only showed temperament when well beaten at long odds in 7f/1m Dundalk maidens, though has been gelded, and warrants a market check with Declan McDonogh taking over on turf debut. 3rd Pick 4 Royal Sapphire (Ire) Jockey: Declan Mcdonogh Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'brien, Ireland J: Declan Mcdonogh T: Joseph Patrick O'brien, Ireland	5	-	-	-	5%
