Verdict

Hello Sweetie has had enough chances and is vulnerable to an improver and there's a few of those in opposition. SEEKING SUSAN was unfancied on her debut at Limerick in December but ran very well to chase home Whistle Dixie, who has subsequently defied a penalty. Liz Doyle's mare is certain to improve and gets the vote over Westerner Lady, who looked in need of the run at Cork in early December. Killahara Castle has to be a big danger as she did very well when third behind Sir Will at Naas and the runner-up went one better with a very easy victory at Down Royal.
