      Verdict

      Aidan O'Brien won this four times in succession before last year and will be hoping DAZZLING can put a disappointing run in a Listed contest here last month behind her. She had looked very promising when making a winning start on the track a fortnight earlier but was caught out by a slow early pace before being impeded and eased. Chicago Girl is the form pick on her narrow defeat by My Titania in a Group 3 here last time and is an obvious threat while Flying Jib was impressive at Dundalk and wouldn't be running here unless Dermot Weld thought she was capable of winning. Intense Light looks best of Jim Bolger's pair though she's up against it on her debut.
