In depth
Verdict
Matilda With Me goes from strength-to-strength and will be fancied for a hat-trick after going up just 4lb for scoring at Limerick. Allora Yeats ran an excellent race in the Apprentice Derby at the Curragh on Friday and a repeat would see her in the picture but DIVINE CELT can overcome a massive 12lb rise for an impressive victory at Sligo. She'd been narrowly beaten in her two previous starts in huge fields and can complete a double. Battle Angel was going on at the finish when fourth over 1m2f at Leopardstown though has been raised 4lb but the maiden High Lake is gradually dropping to a winnable mark. The veteran Carried won over fences at the beginning of the month while the progressive Extensio takes a big step-up in trip.
