Verdict

MRS PAISLEY is yet to show much in a trio of handicaps but it remains early days for this 5-y-o, and having joined a top yard, she's tentatively put forward as the answer. Penny Jar, Indie Belle and Go Boy are just a handful of possible alternatives in what looks a fiercely-competitive handicap hurdle.

  1. MRS PAISLEY (IRE)
  2. PENNY JAR (IRE)
  3. INDIE BELLE (IRE)
