Verdict

The form line of a Tipperary claimer is key to this race and there is no reason to suggest why BE LIKE THE BIRD cannot replicate that success in this contest. The filly ran gamely that day when encountering trouble in running and if kept out of trouble in this, she could make a mockery of her opening handicap mark. Vormir looked suited to this company behind the selection in that previous race and is entitled to show some progression again for a powerful trainer/jockey duo while the likes of Urban Boom and Joupe have shown some promise, but will need to step up markedly if they are to land a winning blow.
  1. Be Like The Bird
  2. Vormir
