Verdict

Thunder Rain hasn't been running badly and has been dropped just enough to get into this low-grade handicap. Cable News has only had two runs since scoring over the trip on soft ground at Catterick a year ago. Dundalk winner Morning Approach has been running better than form figures suggest while You Owe Me Money looked a likely future winner when placed on testing ground at the Curragh in March. Shazza went up a massive 15lb for scoring at Listowel and struggled from her raised mark but PALLASMORE LASS looks as though she's been waiting for soft ground having been placed in heavy going at Fairyhouse in May.
