Verdict

The €110,000 filly HONEYSUCKLE can build on a 12L win in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle last month and land the spoils here in this competitive Listed contest. Second of six over C&D last month, Sassy Diva and Rovetta, winner over a similar trip when last seen over timber at the Galway festival can prove to be the biggest dangers.
  1. Honeysuckle
