Racing Post verdict
Third-partyFinal Voyage heads this 12-runner Curragh mile on good-to-firm ground, sitting narrowly ahead of Playin Cool and Booyea, who are both rated 6 lb behind. Howyoulikethat represents the next threat at 8 lb adrift and cannot be dismissed on a sound surface, while Playin Cool and Booyea will need to find improvement to bridge the gap. Confidence is modest, and the selection may be vulnerable if the main dangers run to their best, but on current form Final Voyage holds the clearest claims. **Final Voyage** is our selection.
