Verdict

Noel Kelly's seven-year-old mare BRACKA LILY wouldn't have to improve much in this field to land a blow in the closing stages here. The daughter of Mahler placed over 2m including here on St Stephens Day finishing second of 17 beaten ¾L on yielding ground and can get off the mark over hurdles at the 11th time of asking and at the expense of stablemate Isharah, the Padraig Roche-trained Rathbride Prince and the evergreen Honest Robber.
