Verdict

While she admittedly has a bit to prove, IVY AVENUE is on a good mark judged on her peak Irish form and could be worth chancing starting out for the shrewd Michael Appleby yard here, particularly if the market speaks in her favour. Mrs Meader and Aldbourne both improved last season and the former, who won 3 of her final 4 starts of the 2022 campaign, is feared most.
