Verdict
BUILDMEUPBUTTERCUP, a dual bumper winner, is easily the top-rated here after a superb effort in the Ascot Stakes. That was over 2m4f but she finished a close fourth in a Goodwood Listed contest over this trip last summer so will be difficult to beat. Run For Mary has also won two bumpers and scored over hurdles and has just failed to get up over 1m5f on her last two starts so could find this on the short side. Hasankey was well beaten in a Curragh handicap last time after showing promise in maidens but Derek O'Connor's presence on Formal Order puts him right in the picture as he hasn't been stopping over 1m2f in his last two starts. Born By The Sea was only beaten a length by Royal Illusion over this trip at Bellewstown and might have won over hurdles at Cork later but for falling at the last.
