Verdict

DUFFYS GETAWAY justified market confidence back form a break when beating Kiln Time (winner since) at Fairyhouse 5 weeks ago and remains of interest. Kiln Time has continued to improve since so may emerge as the main threat again, while Spice Diva was still very much in the mix when exiting the race through no fault of her own on handicap bow at Down Royal last month.
