Placed once from three starts on turf. Struggled over 1m4f at Dundalk in December and others make more appeal racing from out of the handicap on her return from a break.

Forecasts

Boom Or Bush (10/3), Nanabad (11/2), Scoil Naisiunta (6/1), Bobby Jean (7/1), King Christophe (10/1), Whatsforuwontgobyu (11/1), Ilikehim (12/1), Giorni Felice (14/1), Go Guarantor (14/1), Manomine (16/1), Steelyeyed (16/1), Masterson (20/1), British Art (20/1), Gameasapebble (33/1)

Verdict

NANABAD can defy top weight to register the second victory of her career in this competitive handicap contest. The selection finished behind a progressive rival last time and is taken to get the better of Boom Or Bush who finished one place behind the selection last time out and has been in decent form so far this year. Whatsforuwontgobyu ran well on his most recent Flat outing and he should be fit having run over hurdles recently.
  1. Nanabad
  2. Boom Or Bush
  3. Whatsforuwontgobyu
