Verdict

LAMPETIA looks an improved model this campaign, showing the benefit of her return when landing an 8-runner Leopardstown handicap 6 days ago. The return to further promises to hold no fears and she earns the vote to come out on top once more. Canford Light and Mere Catherine head up the dangers.
