Verdict

STEPS IN THE SAND caught the eye when fourth under a troubled passage at Roscommon and can race off a 1 lb lower mark here so is fancied to open her account at the chief expense of Pepsiwithacap, who should take a step forward from her reappearance ninth and will also benefit from this longer trip. Linger For Longer appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.

  1. STEPS IN THE SAND (IRE)
  2. PEPSIWITHACAP (IRE)
  3. LINGER FOR LONGER (IRE)
