Verdict

Chatterbox went close over a longer trip at Killarney and the less-exposed KERMIYA also drops down in distance after finishing third at Navan on her handicap debut with Glyde Ranger behind. Johnny Murtagh’s filly gets the vote ahead of Elsa's Pride, who left her previous form behind when returning a 25/1 winner at Cork last month. Little Jo slides further down the weights while Evans Secret has more scope than most.
