Kilbarry Leader won at Southwell having finished second at Newcastle on her debut under Rules. She should be thereabouts again under her penalty while Rocco Bay travels over from County Kildare having placed twice last year. There are some interesting newcomers in this, however, including the Authorized mare Lady D'Arbanville and winning pointer I Giorni. Regal Renaissance is also worth a market check but GENTLE LIFE, by a middle-distance winner out of a King’s Theatre mare, has an interesting pedigree and is Paddy Brennan’s only booked ride.
