Verdict
SLOWMOTION is only a four-year-old but makes her chasing debut after victories over timber at Auteuil and in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse. She couldn't cope with the in-form Missy Tata on her reappearance at Naas but that will have put her spot-on for this and she looks a potentially smart recruit to fences. Daisy’s Gift, a Listed winner over hurdles, fell on her chasing debut at Kilbeggan in July and was probably feeling the effects when beaten a long way at Galway a couple of weeks later. Keppols Queen, a Grade 3 winning hurdler on testing ground, made a promising start over fences in what looked a decent contest at Naas while Annamatopoeia makes a quick reappearance after chasing home Isleofhopendreams at Cork on Sunday and has more experience than most. Monbeg Rose looks the type to improve over fences now getting more suitable ground.
