Verdict

With four entries, Aidan O'Brien is making a bid for this and Ballet Shoes is expected to come on a bundle for her run behind stable companion Butterscotch at Naas. Away is by Galileo and related to a host of winners. Erin is related to five decent winners and Flattering is a half-sister to Group 2 winner Lucky Kristale and other winners. Joseph O'Brien has three engaged with Eos, the only one with experience, certain to have come on for her run behind Easter Lily over 7f at Leopardstown. Adaliya finished runner-up in that latter event where she stayed on strongly so should get into the action but the vote goes to NEW TO TOWN. Jim Bolger's filly attracted little attention on her debut at Leopardstown in May but travelled well throughout and was only caught in the closing stages by a more experienced rival after leading at the furlong pole.
