Verdict

Snapraeterea went close again at Killarney last time but is penalised for a debut success at Bellewstown and AMBER KITE can take advantage. Ger Lyons’ filly came good in a maiden at Gowran and should make another bold bid in this despite having a couple of pounds to find with Elysium. The latter’s earlier success at Navan came over a shorter trip and she failed to convince over 7f at Leopardstown last month but Lunar Space placed in a handicap over 6f at the Curragh, though has no easy task on these terms. Pageboy is fitted with headgear and is a likely improver along with Malaysian.
