slowly away and chased leaders in 3rd, wandered about from over 2f out, kept on well inside final furlong, just failed
tracked leader in 2nd, ridden under 2f out, challenged and led inside final furlong, no extra and headed final strides
led, ridden and strongly pressed over 1f out, headed inside final furlong, rallied under pressure to lead final strides
An extra furlong wouldn't come amiss for KATCHY LADY but the heavy ground will make this a test of stamina for these two-year-olds and Patrick Prendergast's filly should have improved sufficiently from her fourth at Cork to take this. Marvelous James finished last over 6f at Leopardstown on Sunday but may still finish ahead of newcomer Chips Are Down, whose pedigree is nothing special.
Chips Are Down (IRE) Ad Valorem colt out of Missperon.
Marvelous James (IRE) 25-1 (9-5) Chased leaders on inner, never a factor, dropped to rear entering straight, last of 7, 11l behind Forester (9-5) at Leopardstown 6f 2yo mdn gd.
Katchy Lady 5-1 (9-0) Tracked leaders, 3rd halfway, ridden and no impression from over 1f out, kept on one pace, 4th of 10, 5l behind Liberating (9-0) at Cork 5f 2yo fll mdn gf.
