Gorane²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Declan McDonogh| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 100| D

7/1

Won a Listed race at Tipperary last year and ran a fine race in defeat at big odds at Navan in April before another respectable effort back here over 5f. Possible there's more to come and not out of this if she handles the quicker ground.

Form: 4717-22

One Master²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: James Doyle| T: W J Haggas| OR: 105| BF| D

13/8

Improved from debut to win back-to-back races at Yarmouth then Ascot, the latter a Listed success. Not at her best in a Lingfield Group 3 on return but not disgraced and may come on for that run.

Form: 311-4

Sorelle Delle Rose¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: L F Roche| T: D K Weld| OR: 98| D

12/1

Looks versatile with regards to the trip and won over 7f at Gowran Park last time, proving that she goes in fast ground and won with a bit in hand. Another sizable step forward needed here though but not ruled out.

Form: 127-921

Actress¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J A Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 98| CD

11/2

Won a Group 3 here last year, a second course success but she's been out of sorts in three runs this year, including Haydock last time out when just fifth of eight. May bounce back at some stage and quicker ground here might help so not ruled out.

Form: 139-055

(2)

Dawn Delivers^t²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 97| CD

14/1

Won her maiden over C&D but hasn't quite cut it at pattern level to date and needs to improve on the bare level of her form. Yard have hit some form in recent weeks at least.

Form: 2137-49

(5)

Golden Spell¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S Foley| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 97| CD

13/2

C&D winner of a handicap in July last year. Only won once since when successful at Navan but has run well in two Listed races this year and worth a crack at this level.

Form: 32-5124

(7)

Hikmaa²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: W J Lee| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 101| D

5/1

Won three of her five starts last year, culminating in a win at Newbury in October. Below form in two runs this year though in this class and likely up against it again.

Form: 1451-46

Forecasts

One Master (13/8), Hikmaa (5/1), Actress (11/2), Golden Spell (13/2), Gorane (7/1), Sorelle Delle Rose (12/1), Dawn Delivers (14/1)

ONE MASTER is still entirely unexposed and while she was a shade disappointing when favourite last time out, she's better than that effort and she can bounce back here. Gorane looks like an interesting runner, though she has done much of her winning on rain softened ground, something that looks unlikely here. Actress is one that will appreciate the fast ground and she may be capable of getting her head back in front.
