In depth

Verdict

Dissociate was found to be slightly lame when well beaten at Leopardstown but she'd make a very promising start over 6f here in a race that has worked out well. Vivaia has run in a couple of strong 6f maidens and can improve while Sceolan ran an excellent race for a 100/1 chance at Naas last weekend. Ha Ha Ha cost £400,000 as a yearling and is related to numerous winners while Colin Keane's presence suggests Scarlet Angel, a half-sister to four winners, is the pick of Ger Lyons' pair. Aidan O'Brien is also double represented and Seamie Heffernan is on board TOY, by Galileo and a full-sister to seven winners including Gleneagles, Marvellous and Happily, all winners at the highest level, so she gets the vote.
