This looks to be a competitive renewal of this race, but the standout candidate is definitely SACRED BRIDGE. She won her first 4 starts last season, including wins in the Tipperary Stakes and the Round Tower before she finished her season with a mid-division finish in the Cheveley Park at Newmarket. That form can definitely be upgraded as she raced in the centre of the track, which was against the bias (the first 2 home raced closest to the stands side rail) and she was certainly better than an 8th placed finish would suggest. Her dam won twice as a 3-year-old and stayed beyond a mile, so the step up to 7-furlonsg shouldn’t cause any concern. She is the highest rated of these and receives 3lbs from main rival Agartha. With Colin Keane and Ger Lyons in reasonable form, she looks to have a great opportunity to kick start her 3-year-old campaign
