Verdict
DONNACHIES GIRL has obvious claims bidding for a hat-trick after a double at Hamilton including a success over today’s trip last time. Bell Of The Ball won over hurdles at Downpatrick last month and was runner-up over track and trip at this time last year while Thackeray also finished second here last time. Question Of Faith is better over further but Easy Wind should be noted for Sir Mark Prescott tackling middle-distances for the first time on her handicap debut.
