Prettiest has run almost exclusively in Pattern race company since a winning debut in May last year. Her stable won this with a three-year-old filly in 2017 so expect a better run. The younger generation have a very good record in the race and Affogato found Group 3 company just beyond him at Fairyhouse though wasn't helped by a slipped saddle. NECTARIS was beaten just a nose in that latter event when headed right on the post. She can make all though her in-form yard also run easy Limerick handicap winner Himalayan Beauty. Night Of Romance completed a double when landing a premier handicap at the Curragh but has been hit with a massive 12lb rise while stablemate Voice Of Angels is held by the selection on earlier running at the Curragh.
