Verdict

Leopardstown winner Maybe Just Maybe couldn't get to grips with stablemate Meditate in the Group 2 Debutante Stakes at the Curragh last week but won't meet one of her quality here. Shelton impressed with her attitude over 7f here three weeks ago though takes on better class rivals including CAROLINE STREET, who was always travelling like a winner at Leopardstown and can remain unbeaten. La Dolce Vita has plenty of experience which should stand her in good stead here.
