Verdict

Getaway Gorgeous had WESTERN VICTORY just over a length back when landing a similar race at Killarney in May. She's 3lb worse off here and the runner-up has been in excellent form subsequently so gets the nod to turn the tables. She had Make My Heart Fly six lengths behind at Down Royal in June and should confirm the form while The Getaway Star's victories over timber have been over further. Hook Up hasn't won since landing a Fairyhouse maiden in November but she's been competing at a high level over hurdles and on the Flat and Danny Mullins returns to action after injury. The four maiden winners plus winning bumper Derrinlaur Bill are all open to improvement.
