Verdict
Two very nicely bred newcomers take on WITHOUT LIMITES here but Liz Doyle's charge looks the safest option. She ran into a potentially useful type in Aspen Colorado at Leopardstown and would be unfortunate to come up against another. Cadeau Du Bresil is out of a winning miler though his pedigree is packed with stamina while the filly Veronica's Napkin is by Yeats and related to some very smart performers including middle-distance Listed winner Princess Nala.
