Verdict

Duchess Andorra has been unfortunate to come up against useful rivals and has an obvious chance of finally getting her head in front. However, she may find BROOCH has too much class for her. Dermot Weld's filly is the second foal of a mare who has already produced the Listed winner Caponata and her trainer has an astonishing success rate in the event, winning it 14 times in the past 18 years though the conditions have been changed very slightly. Andy Oliver has three of the entries and Ballymac Rosey looks the best of them after a promising start behind the long odds-on Bazaar at Ballinrobe. Tommy Stack's newcomer Gradatim is a half-brother to three winners so should be noted in the market.
