Verdict
Second at Naas in March, Royal Kahala was far too keen on her reappearance at Punchestown and finished almost five lengths behind eventual third Delightfantastic. If she settles better today, however, she should reverse the form. Fame And Joy has shown promise in a couple of runs at Punchestown and Tipperary while Nelly's Money was second at Limerick and Gowran last season. GLENVEAGH PARK ran green when fourth at Punchestown in February and Jamie Codd keeps faith with the Walk In The Park filly who is a half-sister to four winners.
