In depth

Verdict

Magnification ran his best race since the start of the season here last month though that was over a mile and this is a big drop in trip. Pronounced has been out of form since tackling longer distances so may do better now reverting to this trip. Only Spoofing hasn't shown much on Turf though in decent maiden company and looks the type to do better. Buddha Boy wasn't beaten far when returning from a break here last month and his dam won on the all-weather while LISADELL ABI is having her first start beyond the minimum and was noted staying on in a strong maiden on Friday night so she's handed the vote. Rounding found a mile much too far at Leopardstown though he hasn't shown much so far nor has Frabrika. Lady Rosebud has improved in her last two starts in nurseries after stepping up to 7f and a mile but Loveisallaroundyou has no worthwhile form in her three maiden starts.
