Verdict
This will take very little winning and the two recent fourth-placed efforts in handicaps of MISS ECHRAD may prove good enough as she hasn't been beaten far. Absentee returned from a year off to perform with credit in a Wexford bumper while Cailean's Angel has shown a glimmer of potential. Lady Of The Sea produced her best run on good going at Wexford and found the ground too testing here last time.
