Verdict

LITTLE CLARINET will probably be glad to see the back of Gopsies Daughter, a rival she's twice finished in close proximity behind at the Curragh lately over his trip. David Marnane's filly gets to race from an unchanged mark from the most recent of those efforts and could pick up some tangible reward for her recent efforts. Straffan went well in an apprentice race at the Curragh on handicap bow and needs a second look while Court Queen was not far off at Tipperary in June and could have plenty to say on her return with new cheekpieces fitted. Lily's Prince showed more appetite last time out while Pavlichenko lurks as a possible improver in new headgear.
