Verdict

Sanibel Island made a bright start behind She's A Star at Down Royal in February though the winner didn't do much for the form next time. Celma Des Bois was going on at the finish at Killarney a couple of weeks ago but it would be no surprise to see this go to a newcomer and MOON BELL fits the bill. Jessica Harrington's filly is a half-sister to a couple of decent winning jumpers and will know her job. Pop Rockstar is another newcomer to keep an eye on along with Mountain Ranger, who is a half-brother to a winning bumper.
