Verdict

SIRICI concedes weight to all five of her rivals, but with justifiable cause given her Listed Tipperary Stakes success and subsequent 1L Group 3 Curragh Stakes third to Treasuring. A slightly sounder racing surface will help her see out her race better, and she might just have enough class to dispatch these rivals, with perhaps India Rain feared most.
