In depth
Verdict
Sziget showed up well for a long way over 7f at Leopardstown though finished a couple of lengths behind WATERCOLORMEMORIES, who only faded close home. Ger Lyons' filly looks the one to beat though Zaffy's Pride only just failed to catch Amazed By Grace at Dundalk and there's no reason why she shouldn't act on this surface. Diamond Eyes was a 150/1 chance in the latter event and led until close home so it wouldn't be a shock if she reversed the form. Giselles Thunder has strong form in maidens over shorter and will be suited by the extra.
