FormscanBy John O'Riordan - Under the conditions of this race, SPECULATRIX escapes a penalty for her course and distance debut win earlier this year. On that occasion, the Gordon Elliott trained filly led over a furlong out and kept on strongly to repel all challengers. With that initial experience a big factor against a field made up largely of racecourse debutants, she sets a high standard. Predators Gold is an obvious danger representing Willie and Patrick Mullins. Anything the champion trainer runs at this meeting commands respect but his record in bumpers is second to none. Derek O'Connor is a significant booking on Farland for Sean Doyle. A half-brother to a Grade 1 winner over hurdles, he is out of a dam who also won at graded level over both hurdles and fences.
