Waldgeist gelding, half-brother to the smart Colonel Mustard; green and shaped well on debut when beaten 6.5l into second by High Kick Kev at Clonmel 43 days ago; hard to gauge the form but should improve plenty and good ground likely to suit even better.

Waldgeist gelding cost 82,000euros at three; closely related to a winner, half-brother to eight more inc Waldadler (German 1m3f-1m6f inc Listed; RPR 111) and Colonel Mustard (smart bumper/2m-2m4f hurdle); dam 1m1f 2yo winner, half-sister to German Derby winner; of obvious interest for champion trainer.

Betting Forcast

7/2 Carrig Padraig, 3/1 Manoir De Mirande, 8/1 Sestini, 50/1 Home By The Sea, 20/1 Il Pirata, 66/1 Its Time To Leave, 25/1 Jodoro, 6/1 Minella Moon Shine, 40/1 Ol Parson, 40/1 Saviour Blu, 5/2 World As One, 40/1 Humble Berkshire, 25/1 Like An Ocean, 14/1 Neat As A Pin

Verdict

Having run well in both bumpers as favourite without winning, WORLD AS ONE is quickly sent over hurdles and can score. Manoir De Mirande is generally consistent but was below form last time and is vulnerable. Carrig Padraig has been given time to get over breaking a blood vessel last time so can run well.
