In depth
Verdict
Dedillon had been threatening to win for some time before getting off the mark at the 19th time of asking at Dundalk then followed up under 7lb extra at Limerick. She's up another 5lb but is running so well that a hat-trick is a distinct possibility. Never Forgotten easily won a maiden here in July and didn't reappear until last month where she finished last at the Curragh. Her stable companion Menagerie won a Curragh maiden on heavy ground before finding Listed company beyond her at Dundalk. Pachmena rarely runs away from Dundalk and has changed stables but SISTER LOLA has been in excellent form, scoring at Dundalk in February and over 7f here last month where she stayed on to lead close home. Lady Scathach would have a good chance on last summer's double form while course and distance winner Mk Drama has done her best on ground with plenty of give, which may apply here.
