Verdict

Not too many worth considering in the first division of a low grade 6f handicap. The Irish maiden Billyfairplay is an interesting runner with AW champion Luke Morris in the saddle. He is proven on an artificial surface (at Dundalk), and was a fair third on turf at Naas latest. The top-weight Lucky Lodge is another for the shortlist with trainer Antony Brittain among the winners here on Friday evening, but the rather confident vote is for the lightly-raced three-year-old ETERNAL DESTINY. She has improved since switched to handicapping, and her most recent Chelmsford conqueror La Fortuna has franked that form by winning twice since.
  1. Eternal Destiny
  2. Lucky Lodge
