Headgear is applied to Vedettariat for the first time after a couple of disappointing efforts. He still has the best form in the book if returning to his best but a chance is taken on DUCKWEED. Jessica Harrington’s mare made a winning start over fences at Down Royal and came up against the progressive Tiger Roll when third on her latest start. On Fiddlers Green needed seven attempts to open his account over fences and Beau Et Sublime is preferred having scored at Down Royal on only his second start over the larger obstacles.
