        Verdict

        TOUGHEN UP only just failed to get up over this trip on soft ground at Limerick so looks the one to beat. Play It Again Zaam was a 200/1 chance when placed behind Shadowed in a Curragh maiden. He was ridden by a 10lb claimer that day and has moved to the winner's yard. The remainder with experience have shown little so Johnny Murtagh's Lady Onyx, whose dam was a 5f winner, could prove the main threat though Pegula has a very speedy pedigree.
