Form & Verdict
Eight-time winner including over C&D as a 5yo, last win coming at Bellewstown last summer; excellent comeback run at Navan 10 days ago when reeling in clear leader late on only to be cut down by a classy sort (Bold Optimist 3l away third); 1lb rise fine and drops in grade here; big player.

J: Seamie Heffernan

T: Martin Hassett

Eight-time winner on turf including once over C&D; sole success last season in Tipperary rated race (5f, good) when he had Eclairage 1.25l behind in third and weighted to uphold that form; runner up in this last year on seasonal return off 3lb higher; can't discount.

Won C&D maiden last summer and scored narrowly at Bellewstown last month off 77; well below best at Navan last time and good bit to find with both Harry's Hill and Bold Optimist.

Ex-Irish mare; ran a cracker on her stable debut at Newcastle in March (5f), beaten a nose by a well-handicapped opponent; mixed fortunes in three runs since; others may have her measure today.

Twice a 5f winner in Ireland for Johnny Murtagh, and she has made a solid start for her new yard, close third of seven at Beverley on latest outing; bubbling under and one of the likelier candidates.

Sole win came at the Curragh last summer (5f, good); very encouraging comeback run over same C&D last month but hasn't backed that up in very competitive handicaps since; hard to be confident in.

J: Jessica O’Gorman

T: Eddie & Patrick Harty

Two 5f wins last year, off 63 at Newmarket (good) in August and off 67 on her final start at the Curragh (yielding) for this rider; career high mark now and record fresh suggests she'll need this run after a 212-day absence.

Form & Verdict
Improved since being dropped to 5f, winning over C&D last month off 61, better again when close fourth at Naas; did well considering she blew that start at Cork (under 7lb claimer) on latest and quite likely she has more to offer with senior rider back aboard.

In the first two in four of her last five races, the exception was over in a 5f Naas contest won by Surpass And Shine, with My Girl Sioux third; had the better of the exchange with that dual subsequent winner at Tipperary and Naas; leading chance.

In the first two in three of her last four races; a slight concern is based on the fact that the exception was over C&D in a contest in which My Girl Sioux was third; had the better of an exchange with that rival at Tipperary more recently.
