Verdict

Not a contest to be getting carried away with as very few boast any sort of recommendable form or consistency. High Nellie ran a much better race around here last time out when third and would have claims if reproducing it over this longer trip but that is anything but assured. Good To Flow performed well in a bumper here in December and, while since disappointing at Fairyhouse over jumps, could have more to offer. Given connections, For Syl is respected and she offered a better effort on her second bumper outing recently. A tentative vote however goes to the ex-Joseph O'Brien mare RAGLAN ROSE, who showed her best form to date on first start for new yard at Clonmel last month and might strike a blow now going up in trip. Turfmans Daughter, third at Down Royal in October on sole hurdles start might be capable of place claims having had a pipe opener in a Navan bumper at the weekend.
