Verdict

DOWNTOWN QUEEN showed herself to be better than ever when going in at Wexford and a 7 lb weight rise doesn't look sufficient to prevent her from following up. Bonnie Kellie is feared most if, as expected, bouncing back from her final-fence exit at Punchestown, with C&D winner Norwigi also firmly in the picture.

  1. DOWNTOWN QUEEN (IRE)
  2. BONNIE KELLIE (IRE)
  3. NORWIGI (IRE)
