Verdict

BLUE JACARANDA started a short-priced favourite for her debut at Kilbeggan but never really threatened. She'll have come on for the experience and the softer conditions can see her gain compensation. Lady Of Elysium has been beaten a very long way in her two starts since finishing runner-up at Thurles so it could be a newcomer who provides the main threat. Jonathan Sweeney doesn't have many runners under Rules but usually makes it pay and Lightning Skye is related to several winning jumpers while Andy Oliver's Presenting Meghan is a full-sister to a useful winning jumper.
