Verdict

Having shown ability on each of her three starts in maiden company, THE SUGARHILL LADY has the look of a sure-fire improver now moving into a handicap off what looks a realistic opening mark. She earns the vote ahead of Snow Punt, who went down fighting in a big-field C&D handicap during the Christmas period and he will be a big threat if backing that up. Moudan is also shortlisted.

  1. THE SUGARHILL LADY (IRE)
  2. SNOW PUNT (IRE)
  3. MOUDAN (IRE)
