Verdict

A very low-class handicap in which few arrive in any sort of form. Memorial Rose has been in moderate form in maidens at Dundalk but stepping up in trip could be the making of her and she should be capable of better given her pedigree. LEVEL OF INTENSITY is another lightly-raced type with potential and he should be approaching his best after his opening runs, the latest when showing improvement at Leopardstown, so gets the nod. Tilly's Chilli did better when stepped up to 1m2f at Leopardstown and will be suited by this slightly longer trip and she holds the stable companions Inescapable and Epitaph on that run so should get into contention.
