Verdict

LODILOMOCO is well handicapped on her bumper form and while she couldn't justify market support on stable debut a fortnight ago, it wasn't a bad effort by any means. Expected to step up on that, she's marginally preferred to Tipp For Mac and Leading Lion, though Ganderstown needs a market check.

  1. LODILOMOCO (IRE)
  2. TIPP FOR MAC (IRE)
  3. LEADING LION (IRE)
