In depth

Verdict

Lady De Vesci, four-times a winner on the all-weather, has never won on Turf while Princess Zoe has done her racing in Germany and has joined Tony Mullins. Followme Followyou was in reasonable form at Dundalk over the winter but is 0-15 while Moving Forward, a winner for Godolphin in 2018, has run well in two starts for new connections at Dundalk and looks a threat to all. Magi Gal went up 10lb for scoring at Dundalk in January and that proved too much for her back there a fortnight later so the vote goes to LYRICAL ATTRACTION, who had over 3 lengths to spare over Laura Bullion at Fairyhouse last July and can confirm the form despite an 8lb deficit.
