In depth

Verdict

Several of these were due to run in the 3.45 at Ballinrobe yesterday so that result should be monitored. One of those is Warreedy, joint favourite when second at Tipperary three weeks ago, so DEAUVILLE SOCIETY is preferred. She’s been knocking on the door again lately and is worth another try over this longer trip. Ilikehim is now 0-23 but he hasn’t done a lot wrong in recent races and is likely to be thereabouts again. Yeat's Encore is becoming expensive to follow, however, and a hood will be worn today. Cornhill Lass may offer more value at bigger odds.
