A €40,000Y half-sister to several winners, including 5f/6f winner Love Intrigue, yard are going well and no surprise if she's ready to go first time out. One of three for the yard here.
Didn't show a lot in two maidens at this track in the autumn, needs to have strengthened up over the winter to play a leading role - one of three for the trainer but the newcomer looks more appealing.
Thousand Words filly is a half-sister to winner up to 6f Flying Bear, yard have been quiet recently and likely to have limited expectations on debut.
Full sister to Irish 1,000 Guineas runner-up Just The Judge, excellent effort over the mile at Navan on turf in reappearance to be close-up second. That was just her second outing and every chance there is more to come with trainer going well.
Showed some promise in four maiden runs last year, including on final start over 7f at this track when finishing 2¾L fourth of 14 having gone off favourite. Could be more to offer and in-form Manning rides.
Didn't run badly behind Hydrangea at the Curragh in August over 7f when last spotted. That rival has gone on to much better things since and from her leading yard, there could be plenty improvement to come.
Needs major improvement after lacklustre efforts in two maidens last backend, first run for new trainer but is one to watch from afar for now.
Well held in two runs last autumn, she finished a very moderate fourth of 13 over 1m1f on turf at Tipperary last month on reappearance and has a good chunk of improvement to find if hoping for better in this.
Improved effort at Limerick on reappearance with hood fitted (retained here) to be close third over 7f, trainer is going very nicely and should be involved again.
Forecasts
Smoulder (7/4), Faradays Law (2/1), Kiss The Wind (5/1), Light Laughter (11/2), Artistic Melody (14/1), Always Dancing (16/1), Misty Mountain (20/1), Clonville (66/1), Likewise (100/1)
Smoulder showed improved form at Limerick last time and is to be taken seriously in this, though she had every chance at the furlong pole there and still managed to settle for third spot. It might be minor money again with the potentially smart LIGHT LAUGHTER in here. She ran a fine race at the Curragh in August when last spotted, with the winner since having gone on to much brighter things. The Weld filly may also have better ahead of her and can resume here with a first win. Ger Lyons' newcomer Always Dancing makes some appeal on paper and is worth noting in the betting while Faradays Law and Kiss The Wind are also capable of showing improvement.
