In depth
Verdict
Storm Elza has been racing over further and was in the lead at this trip at Leopardstown last time. No Show is gradually getting his act together after arriving from the UK but HIDDEN SPARK is running so well she'll take some beating. She went up 4lb for dead-heating at Naas in April then came here on Monday and just failed to make all. Raffaello has won around here though is on a long losing run but the lightly-raced maiden Samaritaine is one to keep an eye on with improvement likely. Little Camacho was engaged in the 4.45 at Limerick yesterday.
