Verdict
She's A Queen made a fine comeback behind Sikara here at the beginning of the month but the runner-up was well beaten behind One Up One Down in a Leopardstown handicap on Sunday. Runner-up in that latter event, OH WHAT A KITTEN has been gradually improving and with normal progress Dermot Weld's filly can go one better. Palinode has been showing good pace over further and the decision to bring her back in trip may pay off but Geraldines Lass is taking a huge step-up in trip after a good third over 5f at Cork in October. Dubai Bay will almost certainly have more to give this season while Giving Orders will have come on for her opening run behind Sikara and her stable won this a year ago.
