Aprils Joy¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Robbie Colgan| T: A J Martin

66/1

Placed in a point-to-pont over 3m at Loughanmore (good) early last month. Well beaten in a maiden hurdle subsequently and showed nothing in two Flat starts last year. Hard to fancy. Entered Limerick Saturday.

Form: 88-

Kodi's Girl²³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Leigh Roche| T: G P Cromwell

33/1

Unfancied and never on terms on sole start for Jessica Harrington at Leopardstown last October. Huge improvement needed on stable and season debut and easy to overlook.

Form: 0-

Realpolitik¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Rory Cleary| T: J J Hanlon

33/1

Promise on second start for Roger Varian back in 2017 but tailed off at Tipperary over 1m4.5f this month following a lengthy absence and changing hands for £12,000 last August. Remains best watched.

Form: 84/6

Angel's Amy¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Gary Carroll| T: J G Murphy

5/2

Daughter of Dragon Pulse was slowly away before running on strongly to just be denied over this C&D on this month's debut. Ran with great promise, should benefit for the run and can go close.

Form: 2

Cartesienne¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ronan Whelan| T: M Halford

8/1

Filly by Pivotal out of a New Approach mare. Not disgraced when sixth over a mile here last month and bred to appreciate stiffer test. Should improve but much more still needed to be in the money.

Form: 6

Crystal Dawn

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ben Coen⁽⁵⁾| T: J F O'Shea

33/1

Daughter of Rip Van Winkle; fourth foal and a half-sister to winner Aspen Mountain. Unraced for Coolmore and this is likely a tough ask on debut for a stable without a winner this year.

Flowering Peach⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 75

8/1

Galileo filly out of a smart miler. Went close on debut last year before a disappointing effort and still well below that level on reappearance at Cork in May. Needs to get back to debut promise and improve again. Stable also runs Flying.

Form: 30-6

(10)

Flying⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien

20/1

Sister to multiple Group 1 winner Misty For Me amongst others but has shown nothing in two starts around a mile. Needs to find any amount of improvement. Stable won this last year and also runs Flowering Peach.

Form: 0-0

Kiss For A Jewel^v1⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld| OR: 86| BF

3/1

Kingman filly ran a fine second over a furlong shorter here on last October's debut but a touch below that when placed but a beaten favourite twice this campaign. Closely matched with Guinevere, also has a first time visor and would appreciate rain.

Form: 2-23

Mayfly Girl

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Gavin Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

33/1

Daughter of Roderic O'Connor; third foal and a half-sister to 6f AW winner Sweet And Dandy. Stable not noted for juvenile runners and best watched on debut.

Road To Oz¹⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Declan McDonogh| T: C O'Brien

50/1

Dawn Approach filly out of a Rainbow Quest mare. Cost 42,000gns as a yearling but sent off 50/1 when a 21L last of 13 on January's AW debut. Hard to make a case for at this stage.

Form: 0

Seenit Doneit Next⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: Andrew Hughes

50/1

Very well beaten in both starts this year at Hamilton and Navan and very unlikely to find the huge improvement required to be a factor against some of these rivals.

Form: 50

Timemakesitfine¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

3/1

Daughter of Lope De Vega out of a Big Bad Bob mare. Stayed on well following a very slow start when beaten 9L on debut over a mile here last month. More needed but not inconceivable she could improve to place over this trip.

Form: 7

Forecasts

Angel's Amy (5/2), Timemakesitfine (3/1), Kiss For A Jewel (3/1), Bandiuc Eile (3/1), Guinevere (6/1), Flowering Peach (8/1), Cartesienne (8/1), Flying (20/1), Realpolitik (33/1), Mayfly Girl (33/1), Crystal Dawn (33/1), Kodi's Girl (33/1), Seenit Doneit Next (50/1), Road To Oz (50/1), Viva Espana (50/1), Aprils Joy (66/1)

Should Bandiuc Eile return to her Group form she'd be in a different league to these but following her reappearance, she really doesn't seem to be going the right way. Kiss For A Jewel and Guinevere are closely matched from their last start and would both appreciate a fair degree of rain. ANGEL'S AMY only just failed to get up on debut following a slow start, looking sure to benefit for the run and is taken to improve past her rivals. The Aidan O'Brien pair of Flowering Peach and Flying look vulnerable and Timemakesitfine could be the one to show the most improvement.
