Verdict

TAKE TEA caught the eye under a considerate ride at Naas last month and this impressive bumper winner is sure to build on that for top connections. She looks the way to go, with Eyre Square and Mollys Glory a couple of potential threats.

  1. TAKE TEA (IRE)
  2. EYRE SQUARE (IRE)
  3. MOLLYS GLORY (IRE)
