Verdict

Silent Decision finally got off the mark following some fine placed efforts when beating Lady Songbird at around this trip at Leopardstown in October. She's been racing over further since and will find this much more to her liking. REDZER GAZGOFF has shot up 10lbs after a facile success over the C&D last week but that may not be enough to prevent a quick double by Jessie Harrington's charge. Saint By Day found Dundalk's mile just on the short side when staying on behind Hujaylea after scoring over 1m3f there in November while Haaf OK ran well enough here last week to consider.
