In depth

Verdict

Tartan Skirt led at this trip when tackling 7f at Leopardstown and was only run out of it close home. Normal progress and the shorter trip will see her difficult to beat though VIVAIA may prove her match. Dermot Weld's filly was beaten less than five lengths behind the classy Sacred Bridge at Naas in the summer with subsequent Group 2 winner Agartha in second. Jedi Power showed marked improvement on her debut run to run well over 5f here and may prove best of the remainder.
