A number arrive with claims in a competitive big-field maiden with FLORA given the narrow vote. Arguably undone by doing too much too soon when fourth over this trip at Listowel 3 weeks ago, she remains with potential and it would come as no surprise to see her do better again. Six Feet Apart who shaped well on debut, Seattle Creek back in calmer waters and Anner Castle head up the dangers.
