Verdict

Cold Shoulder has slid down the weights and may return to form after wind surgery while Just A Sip has been threatening to open her account including when second here on her penultimate start. But O’RAHILLY escapes a penalty for winning a conditionals’ race over course and distance a week ago and Andy Irvine’s charge won’t start 50/1 again for this. Bleue Away should appreciate the return to good ground and Tamaris may finish closer dropping down in class for this.
