Verdict

The form of GRADULATIONS penultimate outing (when second at Gowran) is proving strong and she was cosily off the mark in a Sligo maiden subsequently, so she gets the marginal vote from what strikes as an appealing opening mark. Atavique and Coill Na Sionainne both arrive at the top of their game, so they're regarded as the main threats to the selection.
