Verdict
End Play is two from two here but badly out of sorts at present. Tamara Love kept on well behind the in-form Avalanche at Cork 12 days ago and races off the same mark while Jackie Ellis is running well enough this year, though has a poor strike-rate. THE TULIP (NAP) found only Pandagreen too good at Leopardstown last month and the winner was unlucky at Down Royal last week - Eddie Lynam’s filly is the one to beat on that form. Hamley may be the pick of the remainder.
