Verdict

Pak Army had been racing over hurdles before scoring over 1m4f here in September then failed to stay 2m at Gowran before returning here to score over tonight's trip. He's obviously improving but an 11lb rise makes this tougher. Latchet has done very well since joining Leanne Breen, scoring over the course and distance before just being outpaced over a mile last month. She's up 1lb but should make a bold bid to get back on the winning trail. ULTRA PRIDE has only had three runs here and didn't perform badly. They were at the beginning of his career and he's subsequently made big strides on Turf, scoring at the Curragh in August and placed there and at Naas subsequently. There should be more to come and he gets the nod though there are plenty of dangers including Laura Bullion, a winner here in April and over hurdles at Down Royal in August. Queen Amidala looks best of the remainder.
