Verdict
Botanical Lady is a course and distance winner who generally performed with credit last season and would be a threat if the rain arrives as she likes a bit of give. Severus looked in need of the run on his reappearance at Leopardstown and Seamie Hehhernan takes the ride again but this can go to A FEW DOLLARS MORE. He won over the minimum at this fixture a year ago and at the same meeting a year earlier so obviously goes well fresh and on the track. Ken's Sam's has yet to be placed on Turf but has been going well on the all-weather while Louis Leroy has won a couple of races over this trip at Naas and looks well enough treated to get involved if ready after a break.
