Verdict
A low draw is a plus over 7f here and course specialist ENOUGH IS ENOUGH is well berthed. She's only won three races in 50 starts but all have been on this track so victory number four looks on the cards. Fairy Flute was a long way behind her last month despite starting favourite but that wasn't her form and she's better judged on her earlier victory at Cork. Clear Focus has only won once in 37 starts while Easy Boy would be better off at Dundalk where he's on a lower mark. Shepherds Crook would be on the shortlist if getting a run from his reserve spot after a promising run at Listowel.
