Verdict

Shake The Bucket has ten victories on the track to his credit, one more than Sharjah. The latter is on a very long losing run but the former is still capable of winning here as he showed in May after which he won over fences at Limerick. Getaway Queen was behind in that former event but has undoubtedly benefited from a spell over hurdles, reverting to this track with a narrow defeat last month before scoring five days later though a 10lb rise looks harsh. TALIYNA showed her best form when making her handicap debut here early last month when staying on over the 1m2f track. She was sent to the sales and made E100,000 and can start repaying that outlay with a victory here.
