It's hard to oppose HYDRANGEA on her three-year-old form and she was entitled to need the run at the Curragh on return. Aljazzi's best career effort came in this race last year and she holds each-way claims again. There's very little separating the rest of the field but Urban Fox won here last time and while this is a big step up in class, there may be more to come this season.
