Verdict

THE BESTY WOMAN wasn't seen to best effect on her first start in this sphere at Cork in March, having been forced to switch more than once in the straight, and she's fancied to build on that now with a more experienced amateur aboard. Star of Idaho is a newcomer of interest given the stable she represents, while Gortnaclea Castle is worth another chance back down in trip on the strength of her debut form.

  1. THE BESTY WOMAN (IRE)
