Verdict
Insignia Of Rank was engaged in the 5.25 at Leopardstown yesterday. MISS FLORENTINE takes a step up in trip from 7lb higher after her double over 1m1f and a mile where she's scored with a bit in hand under today's rider. She can defy the extra and go in again though Prime Chief was in the lead at this trip when runner-up over 1m3f at Killarney. Sequoiaspirit completed a mid-summer hat-trick over further and is an obvious contender along with Silent Performance, who has shown massive improvement in recent weeks and is only 3lb higher than when scoring at Down Royal. Ten Ten Twenty disappointed at Dundalk on Friday.
