Verdict

This represents a golden opportunity for GLENS OF ANTRIM to deservedly open her account over hurdles. She acquitted herself well in graded company as a novice last season and shaped better than the bare result on her reappearance in a Fairyhouse handicap. Assuming that her stablemate Allegorie De Vassy doesn't get a run, Delightfantastic and Downtown Queen may fill the places.

  1. GLENS OF ANTRIM (IRE)
  2. DELIGHTFANTASTIC (IRE)
  3. DOWNTOWN QUEEN (IRE)
