Verdict

Aidan O'Brien had six entered at the early stage and relies on TERRIFIC, who made almost all over a mile here a couple of weeks ago and should have no problems dropping back in trip. Little Fastnet will be stepping up in distance after staying on at one pace over 6f at Leopardstown while her stablemate Dark Skies was a long way behind the selection last time. Jim Bolger's Peony Fairy attracted good support on her debut at Naas but showed little on the soft ground. Her stable won this five times in succession before last year and she should have improved for the run. Dermot Weld's Dansili filly Enterprising is well connected and is definitely one to keep on the right side.
