In depth

Verdict

Glow Worm is still a maiden but once again showed very good speed over an extended 6f at Limerick where she was only inside the final furlong. Four-times winner POWERSVILLE has only run here once, scoring over the trip last June. He's 9lb higher here but has won subsequently and very nearly scored again at Fairyhouse last week. Pretty Smart has only won on the all-weather though is rarely beaten far and looks a fair each-way bet while Take My Hand makes a quick reappearance after a close third at Limerick on Monday though that was over a mile. Mi Esperanza had been going well before scoring on ground with plenty of give at Tipperary but couldn't handle a penalty and quicker going at Naas a few days later.
