Verdict

Dermot Weld has booked a 10lb claimer for ALL CRAZY NOW, who has a high rating for what she's achieved to date but this is such a poor nursery that she can take the spoils. Steelyeyed produced his best maiden run in heavy going at Roscommon so will have conditions to suit but Gifted Lady is 4lb out of the handicap and difficult to consider on the balance of form. Bouquet Garni hasn't shown much but has blinkers on for the first time which might liven her up.
