Verdict

SEA OF DOUBT didn't show much in bumpers for Barry Fitzgerald but she has upped her game switched to hurdles the last twice, latterly posting her best effort yet when second in a Tramore maiden. A reproduction of that effort will probably suffice here. Bumper winner Jazz de Cotte was runner-up in a Navan maiden back from a break last month and, with the promise of better to come, he is feared most ahead of hurdles debutant Dramatic License.
