Verdict
Eluthera is the only course and distance winner in the line-up but is 9lb higher than last month's victory. Lady Alcazar has yet to win but was only beaten a short-head from 1lb lower at Sligo on her penultimate start. Pulsating, eight times an all-weather winner, is 0-20 on Turf though has twice been narrowly beaten at Fairyhouse in recent weeks. THAT'S NOT ME was returning from a long break when running very well over an extended 6f at Limerick where she only faded close home. She's raced off much higher marks in the past and gets the nod though Maggie Thunder made a bold bid to lead all at Cork and can go well again despite a 3lb rise.
