Verdict
Brassica is a rare two-year-old runner in Ireland for the Prescott yard and, though impressive at Beverley, she'll need a great deal more here. Mick Channon has done well with his raiders though Chynna was well beaten in a Curragh Group 3 a month ago while Trethias appeared to find this trip on fast ground too short at Leopardstown after landing a strong maiden at the Curragh. Foxtrot Liv, who finished a close second in that latter race, had earlier won easily at the Curragh and looks certain to go well though HERMOSA ran a fine race when third to Skitter Skatter in the Group 1 Moyglare and a repeat should be good enough for this. Jim Bolger wouldn't be entering the newcomer Eleganter at this level unless convinced she could make her presence felt.
