A poor quality handicap and the betting should be watched closely for clues. The March run of ULTRA STEPS at Dundalk is the best recent form on view and she just gets the vote though she's only raced once on Turf. Greybridge showed nothing on Turf last summer but reappeared with a better effort at Dundalk and wouldn't need to improve much to take this. Ancelotti has only raced over a mile on soft ground but showed a bit more promise at Gowran and there may be more to come while Ceol Na Mara would prove a threat if getting a run from her reserve berth.
