Amortentia (5/2), Kerkiyra (4/1), Supagirl (9/2), Giladah (7/1), Female Soldier (15/2), Knightlaila (12/1), Nectarine (14/1), Bringbackmemories (20/1), Sir Allen (33/1)

Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but the vote goes to GILADAH who took a big step forward on her first venture into handicap company when scoring at Leopardstown and remains on a workable mark despite taking a 7 lb rise in the weights. Supagirl is another with better days ahead of her and feared most on the back of her recent Navan success although Amortentia can't be dismissed easily either in an intriguing handicap.

  1. GILADAH (IRE)

  3. AMORTENTIA (IRE)
