Verdict

SCIPIO'S DEFENSE caught the eye last time with a view to handicapping over this sort of trip and could leave her previous form behind now. Aristovic got no luck and ran a blinder at the Curragh on Saturday and is a big player back at the scene of her last win. Chatterbox is another potential improver now moving into handicaps.
