Verdict
Jessica Harrington has two entered and with Shane Foley taking the mount on Keepupwithmyempire that has to rate as a big steer as to the pair chances. Donnacha O’Brien has had a slow start with his juveniles though WESTERN CAPE shaped with promise at Roscommon and could easily build upon that effort. Ard Mhacha is upped in trip having been outpaced at Tipperary earlier in the week while Pretty Persuasion is closely related to a 7f winner and is one to note closely if the market speaks in her favour. Reckoning Force holds a Group 2 entry and needs to be winning this in order to justify that.
