In depth
Verdict
Musalsal has been raised 3lb for finishing second at Limerick last week and can race from her previous mark. Pirate Lass ran very well at the same fixture where she was in the lead inside the final furlong over that mile. Navorrosse was beaten a short-head by today's rival Jm Barrie over Cork's straight 7f before an easy victory on soft ground on a return visit for which he's been raised 11lb. The latter got upset in the stalls back there last week and never showed but is still looking on a fair mark. SISTER LOLA won at Gowran in April and looked like scoring again here last week but couldn't quite find a finishing burst. She only went down by half-a-length and can return to winning ways.
