Verdict

After placed efforts at Kilbeggan, Emmy Lou looked to have a fair chance at Down Royal on Friday but may have found the ground too testing. She can do better while Fellow Indian was in fine form when last seen though that was last October. CLOUDY MORNING has only won once in 24 starts over timber but has gone close on several occasions and hasn't been beaten far in any of his last four starts. Donagh Meyler's claim can enable him to double his winning tally though Rachael Blackmore is the regular rider of Personal Shopper and it's about time her mount was winning again from this sort of mark. You Can't Catch Me, beaten just a head at Limerick in July, can prove best of the remainder.
