Verdict

DEJA VUE could do with brushing up her jumping, but she looks on a fair mark back in a handicap so could be worth chancing for her in-form yard. Hurricane Georgie took a big step forward when just failing in a listed chase at Fairyhouse and is another to consider along with the selection's stablemate Lilith, who won well at Newbury 8 weeks ago.

  1. DEJA VUE (IRE)
  2. HURRICANE GEORGIE (IRE)
  3. LILITH (IRE)
