Verdict

Jessica Harrington holds a strong hand courtesy of Nectaris and It's Snowing. The former seems stable preferred on the back of two solid performances and is the choice of Shane Foley. He should go close. It's Snowing failed to get a completely smooth passage on debut, should prove more streetwise here and receives a healthy 10lb from her stablemate. Both Stormy Duchess and Basia suggested they've more to come with respectable efforts last time but that was also the case with ZOFFMAN. Just seventh of ten on debut at the Curragh, he only got the hang of things late on and will have learnt from the experience. The booking of Colin Keane is an added bonus.
