In depth

Verdict

Twin Falls is undoubtedly the form pick on her second to Queen Of Sicily at Naas in July, though the race hasn't worked out particularly well. She had little chance in the Group 2 Lowther Stakes at York and this should be more her level. Jim Bolger trained the winner at Naas and brings out Race In Focus quickly after her third place at Limerick on Saturday where she was staying on over a slightly shorter trip. Sufoof had every chance at this trip when a close fourth over a mile at Gowran and should improve again though a chance is taken with the newcomer RAYMONDA, whose dam has produced two previous foals, the Listed winner Caponata and the Group 2 winner Brooch. With her yard in unstoppable form, Eavesdrop has to be respected despite a moderate opening run at Naas when unfancied.
