GALATRONA opened her account in Irish points at the second attempt recently and there's plenty to like in her breeding being from the family of smart hurdler/high-class chaser Kalashnikov, so she receives the vote to follow up on this switch to Rules. Port And Brandy could well build on the promise shown on her Rules debut at Warwick and is an obvious danger, along with Diamond White, who's displayed a similar level of form.
