Verdict

NEVERFINDANOTHER U figures on an attractive mark so looks the way to go if, as expected, building on her recent Naas fifth after a lay-off. Good Curragh fifth Giselles Defence is next on the list ahead of in-form pair Slaney Tide and Evening's Empire.

  1. NEVERFINDANOTHER U (IRE)
  2. GISELLES DEFENCE (IRE)
