Verdict

FINSCEAL LUAS showed promise in a decent race here last summer and gets a narrow vote ahead of Aidan O'Brien's Mayfair, who can be expected to step up on the form of her Galway debut in August. Gaenari is one more with a more exposed look about her but she has the form to figure prominently. Next Trick and Fleur de Chine are other likely improvers in the line-up.

  1. FINSCEAL LUAS (IRE)
  2. MAYFAIR (IRE)
  3. GAENARI (IRE)
