Verdict
Traisha only won a handicap at Killarney in July but she has proved herself to be better than that in subsequent runs and probably didn’t stay 2m at the Curragh last time. Joseph O’Brien doesn’t waste many trips across the Irish Sea and his Pista got the better of VIVIONN in the Park Hill at Doncaster last week. However, that was the Stoute filly’s first try beyond 1m4f and she appeared to see out that 1m7f well enough so can take advantage of this drop in grade. Makawee has plenty of stamina and got back to winning ways at Goodwood after several solid efforts while Urban Artist has won her last three and won’t be fazed by the longer distance as she has already won two bumpers. Hereby has an excellent strike-rate but is best when able to dominate small fields. Born With Pride has her sights lowered but stablemate Dhabyah has plenty to prove in this grade and the once-raced Utile is also facing a tough task.
