Verdict

The handicapper has raised Burrenbridge Lodge 6lb for finishing runner-up to Annamay at Leopardstown but he stayed on strongly that day over the 7f trip and will be better suited by today's distance. QUAINTLY can make her first foray into handicap company a winning one as she ran a fine race in what looked a strong maiden won by Stylish One at Leopardstown. Johnny Murtagh rides again and his mount can concede the weight to Aidan O'Brien's Harrison's Cave, who ran by far his best race to date when just touched off by Port Elizabeth at the Curragh last month. Belleau didn't run badly here last week despite finding the 6f much too short.
