Verdict

DIFFERENT BEAT won a handicap over the extended 2m1f track here last month and needs to prove she stays this far. However, she stayed on strongly to lead close home and the extra should be in her favour. Ask Dee had shown nothing in seven starts before landing an 80/1 shock victory over 3m at Kilbeggan where she led a long way from home. She's up 8lb but a repeat would see her in the frame. Stormy Master stays the trip in his own time while Glorious Singer dropped back to 2m to run her best race so far at Clonmel.
