        Verdict

        Sheilas Wish has a course and distance victory to her name and got back to winning ways at Cork earlier this month. Something Graceful had produced a consistent level of form this year prior to her latest effort at Sligo while Magnolia Ridge won at Tipperary prior to a disappointing run on soft ground at Galway when sent off market leader. FAIRYLIKE is back over a more suitable trip after two runs over a mile. She's fancied to overturn Fairyhouse running in June with Something Graceful and Sheilas Wish on today's quicker going and land this.
