Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Declan McDonogh| T: G Elliott

33/1

Mantequilla^t1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Robbie Colgan| T: G P Cromwell

100/1

Well held and no impression on any of her first four career starts to date. Struggling overall with little or no signs of ability and difficult to fancy on this occasion in first-time tongue tie.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: P W Flynn

12/1

Plum Perfect³⁰

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

12/1

Daughter of Tamayuz out of a Marju mare. No forlorn hope on the balance of her first couple of starts but still unlikely to threaten the leading players too much though

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: H De Bromhead

9/4

Dream Ahead filly. Took the eye when runner-up in 7f contest at Tipperary on debut when last seen in June, staying on from a long way back in the field when not ideally placed. Another bold show likely.

Angel's Amy (15/8), Royal Highness (9/4), Dedillon (3/1), Calonne (7/1), Mk Drama (12/1), Plum Perfect (12/1), Fulvio (16/1), Burgundy Rose (16/1), Abs Akula (25/1), Is Fantastic (33/1), Jungle Spirit (33/1), Swiss Power (33/1), Self Rule (33/1), Shes A Sheedy (50/1), Lispheasty (66/1), The Tailors Dummy (100/1), Mantequilla (100/1), Half Dore (100/1)

Three-race maiden, ANGEL'S ARMY can get off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking. Runner-up on each of her three starts, the filly can land the spoils here ahead of other potential improvers, recent Tipperary second, Dedillon, the Henry De Bromhead-trained, Royal Highness and Fulvio for the in form combination of Jim Bolger and Kevin Manning.
