Denis Hogan has only found one GOPSIES DAUGHTER one winning opportunity in 21 starts but she's been running really well on unsuitable soft ground and this should be her day. Iceni has only had six starts and has improved with every run though whether she'll handle this quicker going is unknown. Pillar gained his only success in 48 starts over this track and trip and is hardly one to have confidence in but Sweetest Taboo hails from a yard in form and didn't appreciate very heavy ground at the Curragh after a fine run in a big field here. Red All Star hardly ever runs away from Dundalk these days but can't get any lower in the weights and has to be respected.
