Verdict

Plenty of unexposed mares in this but Augusta Kate has the form in the book having finished fifth against the boys in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham last month. She'd won her first two at Listowel and Navan and will appreciate this easier test. Copper Kay had looked good prior to failing to settle when favourite last time in a Listed race at Sandown. She has the beating of Cajun Fiddle and Theatre Territory while Shattered Love made a winning debut under Rules at Naas and could be anything. My Khaleesi and the once-raced Snow Leopardess are others worthy of a mention but it could take a smart performance to lower the colours of LA BAGUE AU ROI. She's been lightly-campaigned by Warren Greatrex and may be a bit fresher than some of these. The Doctor Dino mare never gave supporters a moment's worry at Huntingdon in December when completing her hat-trick and looks to have some engine.
