In depth

Verdict

Cinderella Story has yet to win on the Flat but was just held by Knockcroghery on heavy ground at Bellewstown a couple of weeks ago and has to be considered. Everything Zain was having just his fifth career start when runner-up to Carle Guest at Clonmel but that was over 1m2f, the furthest he's raced over to date. Massyoun has had very little racing over the past couple of years so his two latest efforts points to him winning before long and he ran very well behind the in-form Beach Of Falesa at Leopardstown. OUR NANA ROSE has improved out of all recognition over timber and has won twice already this month. She can revert to the Flat on a very lenient mark and Conor Hoban has ridden her in the past so the combination can take this.
