Verdict

A slowly-run race counted against ASIAN STAR when she was third at Newton Abbot a month ago but that race has already worked out well and she's well worth another chance. Mary is a pretty solid opponent, while Bellas Bridge demands consideration given her ability in bumpers.

  1. ASIAN STAR (IRE)
  2. MARY (IRE)
  3. BELLAS BRIDGE
