Verdict

AREANA marked herself down as one to be interested in when runner-up on handicap debut at Tipperary 25 days ago, faring best of those held up, and she could well be up to building on that effort given her low-mileage profile. Striking, returning from a successful spell over hurdles, and the hat-trick seeking All In Peder head up the dangers, with Stoke The Fire an intriguing runner back from a lengthy absence.
