Verdict

Lily's Rainbow progressed throughout her first campaign culminating in a victory over the course and distance in December. She's only been raised 2lb but has a big weight to carry. She had Rest Assured, who has yet to win a race but is rarely beaten far, around 3l behind in that event but the latter still enters the equation. Liffey View won a nursery here in October but went up 9lb and couldn't handle the rise or soft ground in a Leopardstown handicap. ABSORBING (NAP) was having just her fifth start when catching the eye behind stablemate Song Of Love two weeks ago. She's actually on a lower mark here and with Ana O'Brien's claim to aid her cause she can get off the mark. Arterial was behind the selection last time and there doesn't appear any reason for a form reversal.
