Verdict

FRENETIC had Mother Earth just under two lengths back when making a successful debut at Navan then easily landed a Listed contest over the minimum here. Both Ger Lyons' filly and her rivals are progressing fast with the latter having easily beaten Sussex Garden in a Naas Group 3. There should be little between them here but that earlier form can be confirmed. After an impressive debut at Naas, More Beautiful started a short-priced favourite in the Queen Mary but didn't do herself justice and can do much better.
