Verdict
Felisa finished in front of Vice Marshal when scoring here earlier but was well beaten off today’s higher mark last time. El Borracho posted a much better effort over 7f last week and has won over today’s trip before but Rose Tinted Spirit should have finished closer here on his latest start. Austin Powers has been gelded since last seen in action and may improve but PAPARAZZI returns to his winning trip of a mile for this and Joseph O’Brien’s colt may prove good enough having won off a similar mark at Dundalk in December.
