Malcolm Saunders won this for the UK with Indian Maiden in 2006 but Brian Meehan's Miss Complex has much more to do than when scrambling home in a Thirsk maiden. FIRE LILY had After close behind when landing a Group 3 at Leopardstown but didn't look suited by heavy ground in the July Cup. Her overall form in a higher grade than this suggests she will be very difficult to beat. Lady Wingshot had some useful juvenile form but an absence since September is a negative in this tough race while Caprella, though running above herself here last time, was earlier over 4l behind today's rival Bogini at Leopardstown.
