Verdict
An open handicap but top weight El Toreros should make a bold bid despite being beaten a long way by Fairylike at Ballinrobe. The lightly-raced Sheilas Wish is progressing and will get a good ride from Danny Mullins while NEIGHBOURLY should be winning soon judged on recent efforts as the handicapper has given her a chance. She hasn't run badly in strong handicaps on her last two starts but the assessor has dropped her 2lb so she gets the nod. Music On D Waters is running well though prefers further while the likes of Marcus Attilius and the Drunken Dr can get involved and make this a competitive affair.
