Verdict

Richard Fahey looks to have a found a good opportunity for PADDY POWER in this. Rated 85, he went close at the Curragh on his reappearance and will likely start a short price on these terms. Silver Bid just failed at Southwell giving plenty of weight to a three-year-old but finished ahead of Spice Mill. The latter makes his debut on Turf and is preferred to stablemate Majestic Girl while Justice Rock was a well beaten runner-up here last time but has a lot to find with Paddy Power at the weights. Dandy Maid is hard to recommend on her first start since 2013.
