Winner of her last two starts including over 1m at The Curragh (good-to-firm) last month. Races off a 4lb higher mark today and likely to run well again here.

Impressive when winning her maiden over 6f at Naas (yielding) on her seasonal debut in April. Unraced since and represents a leading stable on handicap debut.

Tipperary maiden winner over an extended 7f on soft ground in April and a couple of fair efforts in handicaps since. Disappointed last time and interesting to see how she fares here.

Impressive winner over 7f at Lisotwel (good) in June but disappointed following a 21lb rise over 6f at Leopardstown subsequently. Return to 7f should suit and worth a check in the market here.

Gained a deserved first handicap success when defeating Hunaina over 6f at Leopardstown (good-to-firm) in June. Finished 3L fourth off this mark over the same trip at Naas subsequently and has placed over further in the past.

Successful on each of her last two outings including over 7f at Gowran Park (yielding) last time out. Races off a 9lb higher mark here and likely to find life tougher in this.

Finished third in a maiden handicap at Southwell over 1m in first time cheekpieces on her final start for Henry Candy in January. Finished last of nine on debut for this stable and probably best watched here.

13 race maiden and well held over 1m on good ground the last twice. Others make more appeal dropping in trip here.

Forecasts

Sorelle Delle Rose (4/1), Always Dancing (6/1), Hunaina (6/1), Tobacco Bay (13/2), Surrounding (13/2), Little Clarinet (13/2), Midnitemudcrabs (7/1), Stormy Belle (8/1), A Little Bit Me (12/1), Legitimus (16/1), Countess Guiccioli (25/1), Tamara Love (33/1), Sun Angel (33/1)

Verdict

SORELLE DELLE ROSE is taken to make a winning handicap debut for Dermot Weld here. The selection impressed when winning over 6f on her seasonal debut in April and can get the better of her rivals here with Hunaina, a winner at Leopardstown last time off a 6lb lower mark looking most likely to chase her home here ahead of the hat-trick seeking Surrounding.
  1. Sorelle Delle Rose
  2. Hunaina
  3. Surrounding
