Verdict
Beauthea deserved her shared success at Tipperary on Thursday and turns out under her penalty. Joanna Morgan's tough filly will be having her fifth start of the month here and may just have had enough with her big weight. BIPASHA was having her 19th start when finally losing her maiden tag at Leopardstown. She has been raised 5lb but still looks reasonably treated and she should again take care of the consistent Silly Dancer on that latest form. Prospectous has won over course and distance but that was a long time ago and he needs further nowadays while Boynagh Joy was a big disappointment when favourite in the race won by Lily's Star at Bellewstown on Wednesday.
