Verdict

SO BEAUTIFUL needs to improve again from her third at Tipperary but gives every indication of doing so and looks the one to beat. Toriangel has come up against some smart opposition over a mile the last twice and the switch back to sprinting looks a positive move. Shoebox King has had a dozen starts and isn't the most consistent but was staying on strongly over the minimum at Tipperary. Lopes Gold had been running very well before finishing last in a Naas handicap, which wasn't her form, while Secret Magician has been showing good speed over 7f.
