Verdict

Jagged Edge returned to winning ways in a Listed contest at Killarney and the four-year-old is expected to play a leading role in proceedings once again. That said, the vote goes to MERIDEN. Denis Hogan's filly progressed nicely through the handicap ranks prior to winning at this level at Killarney in July. She wasn't at all disgraced in the Matron when beaten just over five lengths and the drop in grade gives her a strong chance to get her head back in front. Qualixia makes her first appearance for Joseph O'Brien and it will be interesting to see how the betting market reacts on her Irish debut.
