5/4

Thrice-raced filly. 13/8, second of 10 in maiden at Punchestown (7f, good to soft) 16 days ago, not settling. Suspect the winner there is very good and she has leading claims if taking to AW.

33/1

28/1, 20¾ lengths last of 9 to Kitty Rose in listed race at Leopardstown (7.3f, good to firm) on debut 20 days ago. That was a stiff introduction and she can do better but will probably shine over further. RESERVE.

Forecasts

Grand Job (5/4), Whispersinthewind (11/2), Vina Arana (6/1), Osprey (6/1), Quadruple (7/1), Starry Dew (10/1), September Leaves (11/1), Tanazadia (12/1), Vive Veuve (22/1), Milliat (25/1), Lily Hart (25/1), Gentileschi (33/1), Question Of Class (33/1), Ciste Fionnta (66/1), Dark Enigma (150/1)

This looks a good maiden on paper. GRAND JOB chased home a very promising newcomer from the Ger Lyons' stable at Punchestown and might be the way to go. That yard is represented by a superbly-bred newcomer in Quadruple and she's very interesting. Aidan O'Brien runs a fascinating pair in Osprey and Lily Hart, while Starry Dew is one of the barrier trial winners to keep an eye on.
