Verdict

LIGHTHOUSE LADY upped her form when runner-up in a novice at Killarney last time and appears to have been handed a reasonable opening mark with that in mind, so she's the tentative choice to prevail in an open handicap, with Jordan Gainford's 5-lb claim potentially crucial. No Way Pedro and Appian Way both arrive on the back of solid showings, so they're solid alternatives.

  1. LIGHTHOUSE LADY (IRE)
  2. APPIAN WAY (FR)
  3. NO WAY PEDRO (IRE)
