1m Coolmore America ‘Justify’ Matron Stakes (Group 1) (Fillies & Mares) (3yo+)
Porta Fortuna is a worthy favourite but this is a very deep renewal. It’s hard to ignore the chance of JANCIS at 15/2, such was the turn of foot she showed in landing both his starts from off the pace – a run style well suited to Leopardstown. This is by far her deepest assignment but she looks up to this class. I can’t ignore the claims of FALLEN ANGEL at 4/1 either as she was a dominant winner of the Irish 1,000 Guineas and clearly showed she had trained on. It’s hard to make a case that Porta Fortuna has better form and she should not be twice the price.
1pt win Fallen Angel @4/1, 1pt win Jancis @15/2, 14:50 Leopardstown, Saturday
