Verdict

A beginners chase limited to mares, so highly likely that we've not got any really progressive types on our hands. Plenty of these horses should appreciate this trip, and these include At Rainbow's End and Kalopsia who have both shown some signs of ability over fences. The Gordon Elliott pair Theatre Wine and Strike is Back will hopefully improve for a switch to fences, whilst Plain Talking could well build upon her Roscommon debut over the larger obstacles. However, whilst she needs a clear round, a chance is taken that DEFINITE INCOME can bounce back from her Clonmel fall, over a trip, and on ground, which should suit her well based upon her winning hurdles form.
  1. Definite Income
  2. Kalopsia
  3. At Rainbow's End
