In depth

Verdict

Loyal was well supported over 1m4f at the Curragh earlier this month but appeared to find the trip beyond her and this isn't much shorter. Her stable companion GLINTING didn't show much on her debut at Leopardstown in October but that was over 7f and the half-sister to five winners will be much happier over this trip so gets the nod. Rosscarbery looked certain to be suited by further when runner-up over 1m2f at Fairyhouse while Acqua Di Gioia looks best of Dermot Weld's pair on jockey booking and she didn't appear suited by very fast ground on the latter track.
