In depth

Verdict

This can go to the only three-year-old in the field, HURRICANE HAVOC, who was the outsider of four in a conditions race at Navan last week on her first start over 1m2f and obliged in the style of an improver. Jim Bolger's filly was always travelling well and looks certain to be suited by the longer trip. Plum Sugar showed improved form when sent over tonight's trip for the first time here and was only caught in the closing stages by Bob Le Beau. A similar performance must see her go close from just 3lb higher and she holds fourth-placed Clare Glen on that run. Syann, a close third in a Listed contest at Galway in August, hasn't produced that level of form subsequently while La Chassotte is 13lb higher than when last successful.
