Solid form in handicaps for John O'Donoghue; solid efforts in handicaps at the Curragh (1m, sft-hvy) and Leopardstown (1m2f, yld-sft) on first two runs for this stable; up against it on the figures here but if there's heavy rain she could sneak into the money. |

1-27 record is off-putting but potentially interesting now after an excellent display from 6lb out of the handicap at Naas on his seasonal debut; kept on well to challenge the well-fancied winner Noble Nation with a useful yardstick in third; this track is similar in character to Naas. |

Six-time Flat winner including five on AW (1m-1m2f) since December; unexposed over hurdles and was fair fourth of 13 back in this sphere at Hereford (2m, good; 12-1) last week; should have more to offer as a jumper but this looks a tough task against Un Sens A La Vie. |
