Successful over 6f at Fairyhouse (good-to-firm) at the end of May. Excuses when saddle slipped over 7f subsequently and an interesting runner here.

Fair form in two outings including when beaten 4½L into fourth over 7f at The Curragh (good-to-firm) last time. More needed if he's to break his maiden in this.

Forecasts

Cape Of Good Hope (7/4), Copia Verborum (15/8), South Pacific (3/1), Heavenly Rainbow (8/1), Decisive Action (14/1)

Expensive yearling purchase SOUTH PACIFIC is taken to make a winning debut in the opening race on the card. The selection represents a top yard and can get the better of Copla Verborum, a surprise winner on debut while Cape Of Good Hope, a stablemate of the selection can claim third.
