In depth

Verdict

Showmolina lost his maiden tag over the course and distance on soft ground before another good effort from 6lb higher at Cork when Florence Thompson was well supported to lose her maiden tag at the 21st time of asking but found one too good. Coffeemeanscoffee ran a cracking race in third that day so there's little between the trio. Born Invincible isn't exactly consistent and would prefer some cut in the ground though there's no denying a very good run here a month ago and is still on a low enough mark to get into the frame. However, PALLASMORE LASS was beaten just over a length in that race having received a bump in the closing stages and is taken to reverse the form and land this.
