Verdict

ALLORA YEATS only went up 3lb for scoring over 1m6f at Bellewstown and beat a better field over this trip at the Curragh for which she's up 7lb. This doesn't look the toughest of handicaps and she can go in again. Crackaway made a very encouraging start for new connections at Roscommon where he was only beaten 2 lengths after a year off while Arcland stepped up to this trip for the first time at the Curragh and ran his best race to date. Cliara went up 9lb for scoring at Wolverhampton and hasn't been able to cope but the three-year-old Dashing Diamond was going on strongly over 1m6f at Killarney so stamina won't be an issue.
