Verdict

MORNING APPROACH seems to be building up to something, again shaping better than the result suggests under disadvantageous tactics when seventh at Dundalk on Tuesday, and she's worth another chance if this doesn't come too soon. Dutch Glory has thrived in her second season and she might have been chasing the hat-trick here if having a bit of luck at Dundalk. Givemefive is a steadily progressive 3-y-o who completes the shortlist.
