Verdict

KILBARRY SAINT returns to chasing following a good run over hurdles and is the one to beat on the pick of her form. Fancy Girl is open to improvement providing she's none the worse for her Thurles tumble on her recent debut in this sphere, while Neon Diamond also enters calculations with the step back up in trip promising to suit.
