Verdict

Hayloft found a bit of improvement when a close second to Cabin at Wexford but the winner's trainer is represented by PURPLE and it's about time she was losing her maiden tag. She's facing a huge drop in trip from 1m4f but her stable is very adept at such tactics and her overall form should give her the edge. Starstruck has been well beaten on both starts to date and didn't appear straightforward when strongly fancied at Leopardstown.
