Verdict
SYNOPSIS (NAP) has only run once over fences, scoring easily at Thurles last month. She had a run over timber a couple of weeks later but looks a young chaser with potential and is likely to be rated much higher than 123 in the future so looks the one to be on. Slowmotion was narrowly beaten in this a year ago but entered the fray in winning form having landed a Grade 3 earlier in the month. This time she hasn't run since November and has to concede plenty of weight. Bonny Kate is capable of a big run though she hasn't won for over two years but Magic Of Light beat a huge field over hurdles at this meeting a year ago and there should be more to come from her over fences. Elusive Ivy hasn't been in the best of form but has dropped to a fair mark and could reward each-way support.
