Verdict

A nice prize has attracted a very competitive field. Cerberus was one of last season's top juveniles winning a Fairyhouse Grade 3 and not beaten far by smart stable companion A Wave Of The Sea in a Leopardstown Grade 1. A recent eye-catching run on the Flat will have him spot-on. His stable also run Isotope, who had no problems landing a Wexford maiden despite coming back lame. Yafordadoe has gone up a massive 17lb for landing a Ballinrobe handicap by 12 lengths while Anna Bunina easily beat today's rival Guinevere at Cork and battled on very well to score at Sligo. The likes of Red Gerry and Bear Claws have to be respected and FUJIMOTO FLYER, a Listed winner at Auteuil, may well turn out to be a star. She hasn't run since February and would probably prefer some rain but her stable know how to get one ready so she gets the nod.
