Verdict

Res Ipsa Loquitur had been running so well that she was made a short-priced favourite at Downpatrick last week but a couple of poor jumps put paid to her chances and she finished tailed off. Honourable Lady has yet to win in 16 starts and is unproven on ground this fast though she's slipped to a fair mark. Valours Minion has an even longer losing run to overcome though he did run well over this trip on quick ground at Fairyhouse last time. BOHERNA LADY hasn't had much experience but her latest effort at Clonmel was comfortably her best to date and she's well enough treated to get off the mark.
