2/1

Promise when fourth on hurdles debut at Naas (2m, soft) in January and seemingly not 100% when last of 8 switched to a bumper at Leopardstown (2m) in March. Remains the type to do better back over timber.

Forecasts

Stoneyford Lady (2/1), Kimy (5/2), Stormalong (7/2), Only A Dollar (8/1), Turing Test (12/1), Scar Bridge (14/1), Vilja Song (16/1), Dolores Umbridge (25/1), Miss Maxfort (40/1), Ad Caelum (50/1), I Dont Lie (66/1), Coppola (80/1), Shanlaylin (100/1), Trini (100/1), Theoneiwant (100/1), Hurry Up Flower (125/1)

KIMY never figured in Grade 1 company when last seen in February but she'd previously showed enough to think a race of this nature is within her grasp and she can come out on top returned to calmer waters. Stoneyford Lady, who shaped with promise on her hurdles bow is a danger if dispelling her latest effort in a Leopardstown bumper. Point winner Scar Bridge is another worth a second look.
