Verdict

Lolly For Dolly won this as a three-year-old last season and though she continues to improve it's the younger generation who have the best record in the race. Emiyna made a winning reappearance on Polytrack last month but the placed horses have since been beaten and the form doesn't look that strong. Seeharn won a Listed contest here in June and will be better for her run behind Empowering at Leopardstown but this can go to LOOK AT ME. This superbly-bred Danehill Dancer filly out of a Group 3 winning miler didn't enjoy the best of luck in-running behind Havant at Newmarket in October and should be seen to better effect on today's quicker ground.
