Hilly Filly (5/2), Bredas Pearl (11/4), Clovelly Charm (10/3), Hutton Star (13/2), Missouri Snow (8/1), Junction Road (10/1), Molly Des Bruyeres (10/1), Anna Quaintance (20/1), Bresil Belle (28/1), Poet's Creek (40/1), Maxdale Prinxess (50/1), Cave Daisy (80/1)

Verdict

HILLY FILLY looked a good prospect when staying on well from a poor position at Cork 7 weeks ago and can defy a penalty with improvement on the way. Clovelly Charm has more on her plate but can't be dismissed, while Hutton Star looks the pick of the newcomers on paper.

  1. HILLY FILLY (IRE)
  2. CLOVELLY CHARM (IRE)
  3. HUTTON STAR (IRE)
