Race preview

SIEGE OF TROY can get off the mark at the second time of asking having only just lost out at Naas on her racecourse debut last month. The Johnny Murtagh-trained filly looked to need every yard of the mile trip on that occasion, so stepping up almost two furlongs should be in her favour. With a rating of 86, Jessica Harrington's Betula sets a fair standard to aim at. Runner-up at Down Royal last time, the daughter of Lope De Vega is stepped up significantly in trip now. Abbey Actress improved considerably on a moderate debut effort when staying on nicely to finish fifth at the Curragh on her latest start. It would be no surprise to see further progression here.
