Verdict

BLOSSOM DE MAI signalled she is ready to end a losing run when a very good third in a big-field Listowel handicap so gets the vote off just a 1 lb higher mark here. Oogum Boogum heads the list of dangers on the back of a good Downpatrick third, although Aclass, Kilbarry Ce Ce and Siul Molly Siul all need factoring into this very open handicap too.
