Verdict
Lighthouse Rose has gained all of her three career victories on this track and showed a bit more dash last time though finished behind THE GREY MONTY. John McConnell's mare was having her first start for almost a year when beaten just half-a-length and can go one better. Joshua Chamberlain was impressive when scoring at Tramore and a 7lb rise isn't excessive while Glendars Mahler had been threatening to win for some time before landing a Sligo maiden.
