Verdict

KING CHRISTOPH finished a promising second on debut at Listowel and may well go one better here. Group 1-entered Dawnmore probably did too much too soon when third in the same maiden and has to be feared, while Battle Ready is no back number on his Leopardstown form.

A horse that bleeds due to a ruptured blood vessel during a race or workout. The medication Lasix can fix this problem.

Bobble/Stumble
