Verdict

LURE OF THE SEA was strong in the market for her debut at the Curragh in June and shaped pretty well in second behind what should prove a decent winner (not disgraced next time in Listed race). It hasn't been a vintage Galway week for Dermot Weld, but he can take this prize away. She Got Fast and Cascabel can likely improve on their debut efforts while somewhat frustrating Queen Iseult is impossible to rule out.
