Verdict
Bouquet Garni has been running well enough in this sort of ground to merit consideration though a low draw is usually an advantage over 7f on this track as the first bend comes up very quickly. COPPERTONE (NAP) has an inside berth and makes her handicap debut from a decent mark. She didn't get the run of the race at Limerick last time and may be up to winning this low-grade nursery. Future Frontier is consistent enough and would have been the selection but for being drawn out wide which gives him plenty to do while Ostaiocht ran well in a similar contest last time and wouldn't need much more to get involved if Rory Cleary can negotiate the first bend.
