Verdict

Jessica Harrington won this last year and Trethias is top-rated here after her Listed victory at Naas though she was well beaten when stepped up to 1m4f for the Kerrygold Oaks. Goddess was beaten 9l in that Naas contest but has improved dramatically as she showed in a similar event at Gowran. Her stable companion SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL finished just over a length behind Viadera in a Killarney Listed contest over a mile and has since run over 1m4f and 1m6f. This looks as though it could be her trip and she gets a tentative vote in a tricky contest in which Mia Maria is another certain to be suited by the trip after an easy victory in a maiden here.
