In depth

Verdict

DEFINITE ELEGANCE has been contesting better grade events without really threatening as she only stays on at one pace. This is a drop in grade and she can score for her trainer/rider. Diamond Gesture has been alternating between hurdles and bumpers and has some decent form over the minimum trip. She didn't get far when tackling 2m4f at Clonmel so the jury is out as to whether she will stay the distance. Seancil Oir has a couple of decent runs in handicaps to her credit and looks a threat while the four-year-old Fromdollarstoeuros has scope for improvement.
