Verdict

It is interesting that John McConnell sends Bold Reflection over for what will be her first run since finishing down the field in a Grade 3 bumper at Punchestown back in April 2023. However, the vote goes to point-to-point winner QUEENS SECRET, who is taken to make a winning Rules debut in what doesn't appear to be a contest with much depth. Maiori is entitled to step forward from his fourth at Ayr earlier in the month.
