Verdict

Unless there's something smart amongst the newcomers, WHISPERING PINES can improve enough from her debut on testing ground at Wexford to land this. Mareintheair looks best of the remainder with experience though its likely to be a newcomer who provides the most threat. Frontline Worker is by Presenting out of a mare who has produced winners with her first two offspring, one of them a bumper, while Power Of Power has much more pace in her pedigree than most and is respected provided the going doesn't ease too much.
