In depth
Verdict
Paggane scored over 1m5f in the French Provinces last year and has joined Willie Mullins. She's out of a German Oaks winner so shouldn't lack pace. The stable is also represented by Armed And Fabulous but he's shown little over timber having done well in bumpers. Gordon Elliott has four entries with Magic Dawn possibly the best of them though she broke a blood vessel in an Aintree Grade 2 bumper in April after scoring at Punchestown. Sainte Baol has joined the yard after an impressive victory at Turtulla in January but the vote goes to BIOLUMINESCENCE. Gavin Cromwell's mare landed a point at Boulta by 20 lengths and ran into a subsequent Grade 3 winner when beaten a couple of lengths in a Limerick bumper in March.
