Verdict

Sophies Echo has been running well on softer ground but has no problems with tonight's going and has to be on the short-list. SO DEVOTED hasn't had much racing and is still a maiden but produced her best effort to date when runner-up to Sassaway at the Curragh on Sunday and can go one better here. Penny Serenade was just behind in third and like fifth-placed Foot Perfect looks held, though the latter was noted doing strong work at the finish. Cottrell has a similar profile to the selection and ran very well behind She's Not Simple at Naas so looks a real threat under Sam James, whose claim is a bonus.
