In depth
Verdict
Felicidad won over fences here before reverting to hurdles and performing with credit in a Listed contest at Killarney. THE GETAWAY STAR’s second to Black Tears in a Grade at Punchestown was a fine effort and she returned to form with a comfortable success in a poor field at Limerick. She should just about have the edge here though Ruaille Buaille has been racing in strong handicap company and her close third in a Grade A at Fairyhouse in April puts her in the frame. Cork maiden winner Ya Ya Baby looks best of the remainder.
