Verdict

TROUBLED TIMES is a mare on the up and from a very fair-looking mark with the promise of more to come, she is the most persuasive option. Lady Rita ran well under the circumstances at Kilbeggan last time and needs treating as though still in top form, with Fruit Blossom completing the shortlist.
