Verdict
Quinine tackles fast ground for the first time but would have an obvious chance on her fast-finishing effort over the minimum trip here last month when Catwilldo faded after showing strong early pace. Hail Shower has improved on Polytrack recently and there's no reason why she shouldn't transfer that progress to Turf. More Questions can go well at a big price as he's run better than his finishing positions suggest this season after a very long break. MUNICIPAL is still a maiden but not for long judging on his fine effort on fast ground over 7f at Fairyhouse on Wednesday and is handed the vote.
