In depth

Verdict

BLOOMFIELD carries a penalty for her victory in a Listed contest over 1m4f on heavy ground at Cork where she had Glamorous Approach back in second. The runner-up may have found the heavy ground against her though will do well to reverse the form. She finished a long way behind Detailed at Limerick in October but was conceding 9lb so should get much closer on the revised terms. Naughty Or Nice escapes a penalty for her victory at this level at Navan a year ago and though she finished last in both subsequent races they were at Group 1 and 2 level.
