Verdict

The manner in which DONEGAL TUESDAY flashed home to sore over 2m5f at this venue recently suggests she might not be finished just yet. She was game to come between rivals then and can bring up the hat-trick this time around. Handicap debutants Magic Of Light and Freeway Space are to be respected and any money in their favour should be noted. Pahaska is also capable of taking much closer order now switched back into handicaps while Kilganer Queen is entitled to come on for her improved effort at this venue last time out.
