Verdict

DROMANA followed her comfortable victory at Limerick with a very good run from 7lb extra at Leopardstown, where she led at this trip only to be run out of it close home. She's on the same mark and can see off the attentions of Lusis Naturea, who was having his first start for new connections when runner-up at Navan where he was staying on strongly over that 1m2f. Loudest Whisper found 1m6f too far at Bellewstown but was earlier just over a length behind Roses Queen at at Fairyhouse and can take revenge on these terms. Laureate has twice finished second over hurdles in recent weeks and may find this on the short side.
