Verdict

Syrena has only won once and that was at Dundalk though she was only beaten a short-head at Leopardstown a month ago when PARIS DUVET was very close in third. That was only the latter's sixth start and she looks ready to lose her maiden tag. A Step Too Far wasn't too far back in fourth and has since performed with credit over a mile on a return visit. Dare To Flare has only run at Dundalk but showed some promise there last season while Frow ran well at Tipperary and has a favoured inside berth here.
