Verdict

A decent claimer which may go to BOIS JOLI although there are a number of viable alternatives including La Estrella and King's Head. Marco Botti's filly has been entered at a weight that gives her every chance of getting the better of higher rated rivals on her return from an absence of over a hundred days. The trainer has his string in good order and an excellent record at this track whilst the demands of this test shouldn't pose any problems for this daughter of Orpen. La Estrella has been superbly handled by Don Cantillon and should be at home on this track; Profit's Reality has 7lbs to find with him and doesn't appear to be the force of old whilst Quince is running well but is finding winning difficult. King's Head is the one to be with on a strict reading of the weights and he has gone well in cheekpieces in the past and he should be in the mix but has become hard to win with. A good race of its type where we'll side with Bois Joli who should be a rewarding price.
