Verdict

A low-grade handicap which BUTTERFLY GARDEN should be up to winning. Beaten a short-head on her return to action at Ballinrobe, she's run very well in her two subsequent starts and, though climbing the weights without winning, looks capable of better. Yokkell wasn't far behind her at Killarney and has since run well at Cork while Ruby Jules belied a 100/1 SP to finish third in a Galway maiden last week. Wayne R Walker is 0-11 but is rarely beaten far and could snatch a place but Your Honor's third at Ballinrobe was over 1m4f.
