Verdict
Only 7lb separates the top eight in the ratings and recent winners Kassaba and Bearberry could both be up there when allotted a mark. The former was always travelling well when beating stable companion Zawara at Naas with the remainder well beaten while the latter battled on strongly to lead on the line at the Curragh, though she's possibly the stable second string here. CELESTIAL OBJECT (NAP) couldn't handle Know It All in a Leopardstown Group 3 but the winner is looking smart so it was certainly no disgrace. Inhale led for a long way in a Curragh Listed race over this trip while Lovelier and Tango represent Aidan O'Brien, though the former was a long way behind the selection at Leopardstown in October. A New Dawn has been racing in strong company since her maiden victory and will appreciate the drop in class.
