Verdict

FENDI showed her first form and was noted doing good late work when runner-up in a Tipperary maiden 7 days ago. In a wide-open nursery, she could be worth chancing to build on that. Approaching Bear knocked on the door at Killarney 2 weeks ago and is feared, along with Pub Talk and Slaney Tide.
