Verdict

Assurance has undoubtedly been disappointing though led at this trip when tackling 1m2f at Roscommon last week. BEARBERRY couldn't get close enough to Eldama at Leopardstown to mount a challenge but stayed on very strongly and Shane Foley rides rather than the much more experienced Chasing The Dawn. Feminism ran well for a long way at Naas earlier this month and will have come on markedly for the experience while Grenadine makes a quick reappearance after running in Listed company at Gowran a week ago. The latter's stable companion Satin And Silk was behind the selection at Leopardstown but only weakened in the closing stages after helping to set the pace so she has to be a threat. She's Our Queen also ran in that event, staying on nicely from the rear, so is another to keep an eye on while Fascinating Falcon is a full-sister to Group 1 winner Fascinating Rock.
