Verdict

The mare SLAINTE AND THANKS was runner-up at Fakenham last time, running into a well-backed winner, whilst coming well clear of the remainder. She returns to these shores and runs from an 8lb lower rating, ensuring there's a good chance of compensation. Krujers Girl is unexposed over this trip and needs a close look in the betting while similar comments go for Mystique Heights, poor in maidens over timber but potentially with more to offer now handicapping after some solid Flat efforts. Down Royal winner Brosna George was yet to be popped the question when coming down at Punchestown and is in the mix, with Clontarf also worth considering now eased in grade.
