Verdict

A fiendishly-competitive sprint in which one final chance is given to ALL THE GIRLS to prove she's as good on turf as on synthetics having run a cracker from 7 lb out of the weights when finishing runner-up at Dundalk recently. Cool Azul continues to go from strength to strength so he may well emerge as the biggest threat, with Jon Riggens and Gotta Catch'em All another couple worth considering.

13	Won 7f maiden at Dundalk as a 2-y-o but hasn't advanced her form in turf handicaps this year. Ran a cracker from 7 lb out of the handicap and looked full value for the improvement when second of 12 back at Dundalk 12 days ago and worth another chance to prove herself on grass. 1st Pick 13 All The Girls (Ire) Jockey: J.

4	Upped his game when getting off the mark at the fifth attempt in 13-runner maiden over C&D early last month, digging deep. Took another step forward in first-time cheekpieces when second of 14 in handicap at Roscommon (7.5f, good) 9 days ago and can remain competitive with headgear discarded. 2nd Pick 4 Cool Azul (Ire) Jockey: William James Lee Trainer: Andrew Oliver, Ireland J: William James Lee T: Andrew Oliver, Ireland	95	-	-	-	16%	Scratched

7	Ended long losing run in 9-runner event over C&D by short head from Alfred Tennyson when last seen at the beginning of June. Things went right that day but he remains well treated on old form. 3rd Pick 7 Jon Riggens (Ire) Jockey: Ben Martin Coen Trainer: Edward Lynam, Ireland J: Ben Martin Coen T: Edward Lynam, Ireland	92	-	-	-	17%	Scratched
