Strandfield Lady is out of form and has been racing over trips too far including at Leopardstown on Thursday. Manhattan Swing beat the odds-on Shouranour in very good style at Down Royal and makes his handicap debut from what could prove a lenient mark. JAZZ GIRL bounced back to form with an all-the-way victory over the track and trip and is just 1lb higher than when previously successful in a handicap so earns the vote in a tight event. Daymooma is progressing nicely and was impressive at Ballinrobe and Majestic Jasmine showed herself well suited to fast ground with an easy victory at Tipperary.
