In depth

Verdict

SALSARETTA, narrowly beaten in a Listed contest at Auteuil in 2016, has competed at a very high level in two starts for Willie Mullins and should take this massive drop in class in her stride. Sweetlight D'oroux was always in the front rank over 2m3f at Limerick but could only stay on at one pace and was well beaten into second. Thatswhatshesaid makes her hurdling debut after two bumper runs while Ar Eagla Na Heagla was only just touched off on the level at Dundalk a month ago having shown nothing earlier.
