Verdict

Ruler Of France made most over an extended 1m1f at Ballinrobe so the drop in trip shouldn't be a concern while a 4lb rise in the weights isn't excessive. MAUDLIN MAGDALEN went up 6lb for her victory at Leopardstown and couldn't quite hold off the late challenge of Toccata Blue a couple of weeks later on a return visit. But she's running well at present and will prove difficult to beat. Shabra Emperor is better on the all-weather and it was his 24th start on Turf when he scored at Fairyhouse last month. But he ran very well at Leopardstown last time and looks a danger. Cash Or Casualty was behind in that Fairyhouse event and looks held, though he holds Angel Of Joy on latest running at Naas.
