Purple Lily³⁴

1/1

Promising Calyx filly who impressed when making it 2-2 in 5-runner minor event (10/11) at Naas (8f, heavy) 34 days ago, forging clear. Up in trip. The one to beat.

Riviera Queen²⁰

33/1

Camelot filly who shaped well when 4¼ lengths third of 12 to Wingspan in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, heavy, 11/2) 20 days ago, needing stiffer test. Up in trip. No forlorn hope for yard with a good record in this.

Form: 0-3

Wingspan²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien

9/1

Very well-related Dubawi filly who made a winning debut in 12-runner maiden at Leopardstown (8f, heavy) 20 days ago. In top hands and has lots more to offer stepping up in trip.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Purple Lily (1/1), Everlasting (6/1), Caught U Looking (13/2), Bellezza (15/2), Ezeliya (9/1), Wingspan (9/1), Riviera Queen (33/1)

PURPLE LILY has looked an exciting prospect thus far and can go 3-3 now she steps up in distance. Both Wingspan and Bellezza created favourable impressions when going in on their respective debuts at Leopardstown though and can ensure Paddy Twomey's Calyx filly doesn't have things all her own way in this fascinating Group 3.
