Verdict

Kodi Koh is making her handicap debut after three runs over longer trips and looks up against it. Bellick has improved with every run, however, and there was plenty to like about his victory at Navan last week for which a 5lb rise looks fair. Waitingfortheday has suffered worse in the ratings after her narrow victory over Hey Pretty at Leopardstown. She's been raised 8lb but the manner of that success suggests there's plenty more to come. However, LADY SONIA (NAP) finished runner-up to Hey Pretty over 7f here earlier where she looked like winning at this trip. With the weights in her favour, she can gain her first victory. Art Of Unity has been running well at a similar sort of level and her rider's claim will help but Iceni has never raced on ground this quick though, if acting on the surface, looks well enough treated to get into contention.
