Verdict

A low-grade handicap with few in any kind of form though Trueba was only beaten a neck on soft ground at Gowran last month so some rain would aid his cause. Alfarida is inconsistent but would have a definite chance on her best form though, like Doctor Grace, she's been doing better at Dundalk. Racing Royalty bounced back to form at Limerick and can race from a pound lower but a chance is taken with HOPE AND INNOCENCE, still a maiden after seven starts but running well enough in similar handicaps to be given a leading chance.
