Verdict

Ballroom looked likely to gain her first success when going well in the lead over 7f at Naas but the last furlong caught her out and she will take some catching over this shorter trip. However, DAZZLE THEM ran very well on her first four starts over 6f and found a mile stretching her stamina when sent over a mile at Listowel so she should be good enough for this. Fred Fenster has been showing enough to suggest he'll be a big threat though another furlong would probably suit, a remark that also applies to Batchelors Star.
