Verdict

A four-year-old won this last year and AZUA EMERY beat older horses when landing a Fairyhouse maiden in comfortable style last month. She gets plenty of allowances and is progressing fast enough to beat this stronger field. Port Rashid has been making steady progress and buckled down for a hard-fought victory on very testing ground at Tramore while All Good Things made all for a convincing victory over 2m3f at Limerick and won't be inconvenienced by dropping back in trip. Decision Time had won a bumper and scored on the Flat before successful on heavy going at Tramore and she should get involved as should Quamino, who won a novices' handicap at Wexford before finding one too good in a tougher race at Fairyhouse.
