Verdict
Little Lady Lu ran well when beaten 3 lengths here in June but never got into contention on a return visit last month despite finishing third. Coosan Clover could only stay on at one pace over 2m2f at Downpatrick though more rain would aid her cause but Hill Of Truth was beaten 33 lengths when runner-up at Limerick. WILL YOU WIN couldn't get close enough to Famous Escape at Ballinrobe to mount a challenge but that was a much improved effort and she wouldn't need much more to go one better so gets the nod.
