Verdict
A nice prize for this Listed race has attracted a strong line-up. Patrick Mullins has chosen FLEMENCELLO over stable companions Memorable Daise and Champagne Problem and his mount looked one to follow after easily landing the odds at Kilbeggan. Hi Stranger has a double penalty for her easy victories at Limerick and Down Royal while Mollys Glory was well beaten when runner-up at Downpatrick though may just have needed the run after an absence. Battling Bessie lived up to her name when making most at Cork and won't go down without a fight.
