Blissful¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| D

13/2

Improved for the step up in trip when losing her maiden tag at Tipperary last time out. Has more on her plate here but beautifully bred and rates as the sort to carry on improving.

Form: 7721

Camachita³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P Murtagh| BF

20/1

Green on debut but showed promise and improved for her second start here at 6f, shaping like this step up in trip would suit. No match for the winner that day but yard are in fine form and she's not without each-way claims.

Form: 42

Ha'penny Bridge⁸⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: T P Madden| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 78| D

33/1

8/1 when well beaten on debut but she took a big step forward from that run when landing a Limerick maiden on her second start. Form of that race has not been done any favours since and has plenty to find up in class here as a result.

Form: 01

Lady Jane Wilde³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: N G McCullagh| T: J M Oxx| D

8/1

Surprise 66/1 winner over this trip at the Curragh on debut when getting the better of a Ballydoyle colt with the benefit of experience. Since bought by new connections and she rates as an interesting runner provided she handles this faster ground.

Form: 1

Nurse Barbara¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons

7/2

£55,000 Kodiac filly who won with plenty in hand at Cork on debut earlier this month. Had some promising sorts in behind that day and there's stamina in the dam's side of the pedigree; step up in trip could be a source of improvement.

Form: 1

(8)

Pronouncement⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Chris Hayes| T: J P Murtagh

11/2

Has run well on each of her three starts without managing to get her head in front but she finished in amongst some useful sorts last time when only beaten 1L and she's shaped like this step up in trip is sure to suit on a couple of those runs.

Form: 423

(2)

Punita Arora⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 98

9/2

Justified even money favouritism at Navan on her second start, confirming the promise of her debut second and shaped like a step up in trip was called for back at Navan last time out when a staying on second of six; worth a crack at this level.

Form: 212

(9)

Raven's Cry²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W J Lee| T: P Twomey| D

3/1

Only narrowly denied on debut and arrives here bidding for a hat-trick having landed two races last month. Stayed on well at Killarney last time and could find improvement for this quicker ground given her pedigree; interesting runner.

Form: 211

(5)

Sailing South⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger| OR: 71

33/1

Well beaten on her first couple of outings but returned from a mid-season break with a Listowel success earlier this week. Will need more against these rivals turned out again quickly.

Form: 741

Forecasts

Raven's Cry (3/1), Nurse Barbara (7/2), Punita Arora (9/2), Pronouncement (11/2), Blissful (13/2), Lady Jane Wilde (8/1), Camachita (20/1), Ha'penny Bridge (33/1), Sailing South (33/1)

PRONOUNCEMENT has shown a fair level of ability in her three runs to date and with the step up in trip likely to suit here, she ought to run well for a yard in form in recent weeks. Raven's Cry is another filly in form and she won with a fair amount in hand last time out following on from her success at the Galway Festival. Nurse Barbara and Blissful are both respected for powerful connections with the pair open to improvement.
