In depth

Verdict

Drish Melody paid her first visit here nine days ago and scored with something in hand over the trip. The soft ground was the key to her improvement and a 9lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. ANGEL'S TRUMPET (NAP) is the other course and distance winner in the line-up and he's had a relatively light campaign, completing a double in the spring and running very well over 7f at Galway last time. He gets the nod though Way To Win looks a danger after a fine run on soft ground at Listowel. Clonmel winner Dazzling Spirit ran better than her form figure would suggest at the Curragh last month and has Jamie Powell's claim to aid her cause.
