8/1

Winner at Tipperary in May. 10/1, second of 5 in minor event at Gowran (9.4f, good) 77 days ago, never nearer. Open to progress and makes plenty of appeal.

5/4

Useful colt. Winner at Gowran in May. Third of 5 in minor event at Gowran (9.5f, good, 10/3) 37 days ago. Booking of Carroll a plus. Blinkers on 1st time. Should continue to give a good account.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 83

10/3

Fairly useful filly. Tongue strap on for 1st time, didn't need to be at best when winning 13-runner maiden at Gowran (9.4f, good, 11/4) 19 days ago, always holding on. Respected.

Riviera Queen¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 85

10/3

Lightly-raced winner. Didn't need to improve to win 4-runner maiden (4/7) at Tramore (12f, good to soft) 16 days ago. More will be required to follow up but she's not discounted.

Form: 0-3721

Miss Tapley¹¹⁶

12/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 17 lengths sixth of 11 to Vestigia in maiden (5/2) at Gowran (8f, heavy), finding little. Off 116 days. Others are more appealing.

Form: 2-36

Forecasts

Vestigia (5/4), Riviera Queen (10/3), Cancelled (10/3), Akecheta (8/1), Miss Tapley (12/1)

AKECHETA is going the right way and has the best form, so she can edge out Vestigia Who sports blinkers for the first time after a respectable showing at Gowran. Cancelled can also make her presence felt.
