Verdict

Willie Mullins has won this race with some top class mares in the past and his LAURINA, an impressive winner at Cheltenham (2m1f, soft) last month can join the roll of honour on her first attempt at this trip. The selection had a number of these behind her on that occasion and can get the better of Lackaneen Leader who drops in trip today following a victory at Limerick last time. Dawn Shadow finished third behind the selection at Fairyhouse in January and can fill the same position today.
  1. Laurina
  2. Lackaneen Leader
  3. Dawn Shadow
