Verdict

SOMERSBY ROOST impressed here on penultimate start and looks worth another chance. Brosna Queen is feared most ahead of handicap debutant Bossy Bird, while Willie Mullins' Surfin USA is likely to be popular in the market.

6	Got off the mark in taking fashion in a course handicap (19f) in early-May. That form has some substance, and she's clearly better than she showed over a longer trip at Listowel (23.5f) later that month. Has been freshened up and may well resume winning ways back down in distance. 1st Pick 6 Somersby Roost (Ire) Jockey: Phillip Enright Trainer: Oliver Mckiernan, Ireland J: Phillip Enright T: Oliver Mckiernan, Ireland	100	-	-	-	20%

1	Fair bumper winner. Off the mark with an improved display in Downpatrick novice last time, travelling smoothly and asserting quickly when asked.
