Verdict

It's worth chancing DRAGON ROLL, who has shaped pretty well in 2 starts over a mile since returning from a break last month, leaving the impression on both occasions that the return to this trip would be just the ticket. She remains on an attractive mark, too, and gets the nod ahead of lightly-raced 3-y-o Finke River. Others to consider include top-weight Cedar Rapids and Munfallet.

  1. DRAGON ROLL (IRE)
  2. FINKE RIVER
  3. CEDAR RAPIDS (IRE)
