In depth

Verdict

Ice Canyon has now been a beaten favourite in her last four starts including when odds-on for her reappearance at Dundalk so she's worth opposing. Sammyjade showed enough in her first campaign to suggest she'll be winning soon and the booking of Pat Smullen indicates she'll be ready for this. SNOWSTAR stayed on strongly into second over 6f on fast going at Navan and today's testing conditions can see her take this despite dropping down in trip. Guardia Svizzera hasn't improved from his debut on heavy ground and the remainder will need to find some improvement.
