Verdict
Plenty of bumper winners on show but most step up in class with the exception of GRAGEELAGH GIRL. She’s found only the progressive Posh Trish too good the last twice, demoted by the stewards first time and in Listed company at Cheltenham later, and has finished ahead of both L'chamise and Lady Marwah in the process. Strike The Pose, Everlanes and Diamond Gait all made, winning debuts last month while Outofthisworld made a winning start at Market Rasen back in March. Duhallow Gesture has changed yards since scoring at Tipperary back in May with Kaloci winning at Fakenham more recently and preferred to Lilliput Lane.
