Verdict

MODDY PODDLE arrives on the up and is fancied to defy an 8 lb rise and follow up her Gowran victory at the chief expense of Ratib, who figures on a handy mark and should also benefit from this return to 1m2f. Alex D also merits a second look now he takes a step up in trip.

  1. MODDY PODDLE (IRE)
