Verdict

Tralee Hills included this race in last year’s hat-trick when partnered by Serena Brotherton. But the latter switches to LADY RESET, who won over hurdles in May and has also scored five times on the Flat in the past - she was beaten only a head at Salisbury recently. Songo has returned to this level in fine form having won two of his last three outings and is preferred to recent Yarmouth winner Placated while Miss Mulligan makes more appeal in this grade than both Liberated Lad and Triple Nickle.
