Verdict

Aurora Princess was a 50/1 chance when beating a big field over the track and trip in June and showed it was no fluke when following up at Gowran then scoring at Clonmel later. HAZIYA is brought out quickly under a penalty for an impressive victory over a mile here on Saturday and with the longer trip certain to suit can complete a quick double. Her in-form stable also run French recruit Entropy, who is one to note for the future. Moracana makes her handicap debut after landing a course and distance maiden in good style while the maiden Essential Part could be on a nice mark for her handicap bow as she raced in very testing conditions last season. Seamie Heffernan rides Buckman Tavern, a 1m5f winner here last July, and he may prove better than the stable's recent Dundalk winner Drakensberg.
