Going: Soft
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneRace Tip
The form of Bay Of Bengal's Curragh win was handsomely advertised at Galway with the runner-up landing the big mile handicap and the third making the frame in another premier handicap. The lightly-raced four-year-old is only 4lb higher and is open to more improvement. Preference, though, is for the lightly-weighted HEATHER BEAR who is on a four-timer. An uncomplicated type who can be ridden close to the pace if required, she's up 6lb for her Ballinrobe victory but is the type who just does enough and can take another step up the ladder. Dark Vega had been shaping as if she wanted to go further and duly improved when trying 1m2f for the first time at Roscommon. She's been left on the same mark for finishing third in a competitive contest against colts and the fourth boosted the form at Galway on Sunday.
