Verdict

SATURN ran well in defeat when bidding for the hat-trick here 11 days ago and this regally-bred sort remains of strong interest stepping up in trip. Reina del Mar made a positive start for this yard when fourth at Leopardstown so rates the main threat ahead of Fairytale Princess, who won in good style over C&D recently.

  1. SATURN (IRE)
