Verdict
DINARIA DES OBEAUX (NAP) already boasts smart form and was third last time behind Cheltenham Grade 1 winner Benie Des Dieux. She has no penalty for her victory in a Grade 2 at Thurles in January and is impossible to oppose. Youcantcallherthat is easily held on the form book as is Kate Appleby Shoes and the latter beat West Bridge seven lengths here in December. Head Turner won a novices’ handicap at Fairyhouse last month but faces a stiff task on these terms.
