Verdict

Joseph O'Brien won this last year and though Proud And Elated is thoroughly exposed she ran better at Tipperary last time and not too many of these will finish in front of her. Vivianite was only a length behind the in-form Rionach on that latter track and is on the upgrade while Zarena looked one to follow when fourth at Dundalk though that was back in February. Park Bloom has shown enough to suggest she'll be winning soon, possibly in a handicap, but a chance is taken on ANCESTRAL, who is out of a 1000 Guineas winner who has already produced five winners including Yorkshire Oaks winner Quiff.
