Verdict
Hasty Brook ran well over a shorter trip here on his debut for new connections having earlier won at Clonmel for Joseph O’Brien. Today’s opponents both travel over from Ireland and AILIE ROSE won over 2m4f here on her last visit in January. The latter is penalised for that success but is still weighted to come out best and with winning partner Brian Hughes back on board, she‘s preferred to compatriot Perfect Arch.
