Verdict
With her stable in good form, ECLAT DE LUMIERE (NAP) can get back on the winning trail after just failing to reel in Simply Sideways, who was receiving 22lb, at Clonmel. The winner followed-up at Listowel last week and is now rated 81 so Dermot Weld's filly looks very well treated. Expound has been placed eight times in 13 starts and should be winning soon but it's a long time since Morph Speed won and this looks on the short side. Whileuweresleeping, a dual winner in France, last ran in a Group 2 at the Arc meeting at Longchamp a year ago and though Golden Spangle has been in winning form this summer she's making her all-weather debut.
