Verdict

PORT OF SPAIN shaped well when an unlucky-in-running third at the Curragh recently and is fancied to build on it and get off the mark at the chief expense of Resurgence who also has better days ahead of him judged on his second at the same track last time out. Ger Lyons' newcomer Mid Flight catches the eye on paper and also needs considering, especially if the market vibes are positive.
