Verdict

Not a strong mares' maiden by any means and the most solid option looks to be COTTIE. She ran her best race to date when runner-up in a Fairyhouse handicap back in the autumn and a repeat should see her firmly in the mix here. 4-y-o Royal Eagle and Taxi Rank can also figure, whilst Knocknagappagh demands a market check on return/debut for Gordon Elliott.

  1. COTTIE (IRE)
  2. ROYAL EAGLE (IRE)
  3. TAXI RANK (IRE)
