In depth

Verdict

Esthers Marvel was engaged in the 3.50 here yesterday and Arctic Sofia in the 3.15. The former would have a chance in both contests so the result should be monitored. Danegeld gained his only hurdles victory on this track though that was over 2m while ALLORA YEATS, a dual winner on the Flat, has never scored over timber. However, the latter's close second to Punters Poet at Clonmel would probably enough to see here go one better. Miraculum has run moderately on the flat since a good fourth at Down Royal where she was staying on over an extended 2m but Slainte And Thanks was beaten a long way when fourth at Wexford.
