In depth

Verdict

A wide open finale and the betting ought to prove informative once more. Conversely and Littlevix are both dropping to this trip and have hinted at ability, while Daisy's Flyer improved for the drop to 5f at Tipperary last time and Court Queen , Slumming Angel and Realt Rua have shown their best over this journey and must be considered. Newcomer Focus Of Attention is worth a check but the booking of Smullen to partner TOOKIEDOO is not missed. Her best work has come at this track and over this distance, she's coming back from a short break and shouldn't be far away if building on prior attempt over C&D in June.
