In depth

Verdict

Drunk In Love would have every chance on her best form but is becoming hard to predict. Distillate ran her best race so far when second to Pub Talk over 7f here last time but WAKAI UMI should have the legs on Ado McGuiness’ filly over this trip based on a cosy success at Naas. None of the others make much appeal on what they’ve shown so far.
