Verdict
This is one of the few races at the meeting Dermot Weld hasn't won but Heartful looks to have been prepared to put matters right after just three maiden runs and she's tried in blinkers for the first time. Blairmayne completed a double in minor handicaps at Fairyhouse but couldn't quite complete a hat-trick from his new mark at Leopardstown and has gone up again. Flowerhill Nova was just behind in that latter event and looks held while Zebgrey is running well but appeared to need every inch of a mile at Leopardstown. FLYING FAIRIES has a big weight here but Joe Murphy has put Killian Leonard up to claim his 7lb and the filly, who came from well off the pace to finish fourth in a premier handicap at the Curragh last time, can prove herself more than useful at this level.
