Verdict

FIERY BROWN showed improved form when beaten only by one in receipt of a handy weight-for-age allowance on handicap debut at Limerick 16 days ago. Nicely on top of the remainder that day, her rider takes off a handy 5 lb here and she gets the nod to go one place better. A first-time tongue tie could well help Warm in Gorey and he's expected to go well along with Anstand. Lakomet of Saints is one to monitor closely in the market for positive vibes.

  2. WARM IN GOREY (IRE)
  3. ANSTAND (GER)
