Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: S M Crosse⁽⁵⁾| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 87

14/1

Rolled out four wins on the trot on the AW at Dundalk last November. Holy Roman Emperor filly is still without success in four starts on turf. May need the run on return to action but hard to dismiss.

Form: 11115-5

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: W J Lee| T: K J Condon| OR: 86| C

7/4

Two from 14 starts for trainer Clive Cox in Britain and has started well for new connections landing a 7f handicap here last month off a 8lb lower mark. Penalty for narrow margin win may be enough to stop current progress.

9/2

Daughter of Elzaam showing solid and consistent form in a number of starts since April running well in defeat. 1L behind Black Magic Woman at Gowran Park last month and returns on much better terms here.

Form: 33-8652

Dame Kyteler¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 83

11/2

Off the mark for connections at the third time of asking when landing a Tipperary maiden over an extended 7f earlier this month. No surprise to see a bold bid once again on handicap debut.

Form: 7-51

(5)

Leagan Gaeilge^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 79| D

9/2

Daughter of Vocalised has failed to build on her debut win at Gowran Park in October but has been running with credit in a number of starts since May. Bit more needed but enters calculations.

Form: 14-0343

Lottieloveheart^t⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: A J Slattery⁽⁵⁾| T: N Meade| OR: 74

20/1

Six-race maiden still looking for breakthrough success in four starts on turf. Dropped away quickly on seasonal debut at Leopardstown in May on latest start and difficult to make a case for in this contest.

Form: 54333-0

Forecasts

Crafty Madam (7/4), Waitingfortheday (9/2), Leagan Gaeilge (9/2), Dame Kyteler (11/2), Black Magic Woman (7/1), Too Precious (14/1), Lottieloveheart (20/1)

The trainer/jockey combination of Joseph and Donnacha O'Brien can land the spoils here with WAITINGFORTHEDAY. The daughter of Elzaam still looks on an attractive mark despite being 5lb higher than last winning stamp 12 months ago. The filly can take advantage of her captivating rating at the expense of Tipperary winner earlier this month, Dame Kyteler and Waitingfortheday conqueror last month, Black Magic Woman .
