In depth

Verdict

Rachael Blackmore has forced the pace on PEACOCKS SECRET when Shark Hanlon's charge has scored over 2m4f at Wexford and Naas. Her mount has been hanging on in the closing stages so today's trip should prove ideal and a hat-trick beckons. Lacken Bridge, a winner over 2m5f on heavy going at Tramore in April, will have found 2m on the short side when returning to action at Gowran but battled to victory and a 6lb rise shouldn't prevent another big effort. It's a long time since Lettermacaward was winning races though he hasn't performed badly since returning from a very long break and should be ready for this. Milanesque needs further and dual hurdles winner Bective Cave has shown nothing in three starts over fences.
