Verdict
Having beaten the smart Monaasib at Fairyhouse, her second victory in three starts, VERNET (NAP) was elevated to a mark of 96 which makes her top-rated here. Considering she's receiving weight all-round with Hugh Horgan's claim to aid her cause she looks very well in. Pandora Lovegood completed a double when scoring at the Galway Festival but hasn't been seen since finishing last in a Curragh Group 3 in September. Clever And Cool has been competing exclusively at Listed and Group level since making a winning debut at Cork in September so should appreciate the drop in class but dual course winner Red Letter Bray has a bit to find at these weights and could do with some rain.
