Verdict

A disappointing turnout but that won't concern connections of GOLDEN ACORN. Andy Oliver's filly has steadily improved and was going on nicely at the end of a mile behind Romantic Stroll at Leopardstown last week so this looks ideal. Choisilady finished last on her debut but certainly improved for that experience with a decent effort behind Battle Of Saratoga at Limerick. She can make further progress and that form looks stronger than Elegant Sisi's run behind Destiny's Child.
