Perfect Portrait³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 93

15/2

Lightly-raced winner. Didn't need to be at best when winning 17-runner maiden at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft, 5/6) 36 days ago, keeping on well. Stable in good form. Difficult ask.

Form: 34-31

(10)

Shamwari²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien

11/1

Promising sort. 1¾ lengths second of 5 to Tower of London in listed race at Leopardstown (12f, good, 16/1) 20 days ago. Stable in good form. Leading claims.

Form: 32

Snowcapped³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Colin Keane| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 87

6/1

Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 3/1, good third of 10 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to soft) 33 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip.

Mashia³⁶

Weight: 9-2| Age: 3

T: D K Weld J: Chris Hayes

Forecasts

Maxux (2/1), Library (5/1), Snowcapped (6/1), Lambada (15/2), Perfect Portrait (15/2), Mashia (15/2), Empress Of Beauty (9/1), Dame Kiri (10/1), Shamwari (11/1), Small Oasis (18/1)

SHAMWARI shaped well when chasing home recent Ulster Derby winner Tower of London in a listed race at Leopardstown 3 weeks ago and gets the vote with further improvement likely. Dermot Weld's Mashia should have more to come and is feared most ahead of the selection's stablemate Maxux, who won well on her Gowran debut 10 days ago.
