Verdict
Dha Leath, a winner over this trip at Navan in October, dropped back to a mile at Limerick last month and came with a late rattle to lead close home. New Moon Rising finished runner-up here last July and made no mistake on a return visit last month when scoring comfortably. Simply Glorious won a course and distance handicap last month but couldn't cope with softer conditions at Sligo while Buenaventura is lightly raced and followed a victory at Dundalk with a narrow defeat when tried over 1m4f there. SUPAGIRL looked one to follow when scoring at Navan but then got upset in the stalls at Limerick and never showed her form. She gets another chance though Zuhra has shown plenty of promise and makes her handicap debut.
