Verdict

Guzzle An Go landed a Limerick maiden in very good style in March before an even better effort behind Cloughmile on the same track. She fell in a Grade 3 at Punchestown next time but this looks within her capabilities though she was engaged to run at Clonmel last night. Quivvy Bridge pulled up in that Punchestown event but had earlier run very well in a Listed contest at Wetherby. ILIKEYOU landed a handicap here in early March then defied an 8lbs rise to score here again three weeks later. She faces a tougher task on her hat-trick bid but is obviously in good shape at present and gets the vote. Gudnis Gracious Me was in cracking form on good ground last summer but hasn't been seen since September which may just count against her.
