Verdict

A mares' novice handicap chock-full of potential and it's DRUMLEE SPUD who gets the tentative nod to build on her early-season efforts for the in-form Ben Pauling stable. Party Vibes is a mare firmly on the up and, arriving on a hat-trick, she can give the selection most to think about, while El Elefante, Larchmont Lass and Marmalade Time are just a handful of others to consider in what looks a wide-open renewal of this valuable, long-established prize.

  1. DRUMLEE SPUD (IRE)
  2. PARTY VIBES (IRE)
  3. EL ELEFANTE (IRE)
