Verdict
Kilganer Queen is getting a bit long in the tooth and hasn’t run over fences since March of last year. PASEO (NAP) returned from a break to win easily at Ludlow with both the second and third franking the form since. Catlin has only won at Newcastle and has gone up 6lb for his latest victory there while Ballybough Mary never threatened on her chasing bow at Uttoxeter, though is probably capable of better.
