Verdict

Almadaa ran poorly at Cork last month but the last time he raced over this trip he scored at Gowran and is now on a 6lb lower mark. Sister Slew does better at Dundalk these days and isn't well handicapped on Turf unlike ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. She won at Gowran last week and this is a similar track and, though raised 7lb, her earlier victory on that course was from a higher mark. Fairy Foxglove has been racing on Tapeta at Wolverhampton and completed a double there in February while Consonance looked on the way back to form at Listowel last week and can't get any lower in the ratings.
