Verdict

Emerald Green is by Galileo out of a mare who has produced winners with her first seven foals to race so she could do with a victory for the paddocks. She's been inconsistent but would have a chance on her best form. CIEL D'AFRIQUE has improved with each run and her second to the useful Mt Leinster in an amateurs' race at Galway in July could give her the edge. Lady Dahlia has been running into some very smart performers and looks certain to get competitive but Autumn Evening looked suited by further than this when placed at Navan.
