Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: J Feane| OR: 105| CD

11/8

Useful mare. 13/2, respectable 2¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Porta Fortuna in Lanwades Stud Stakes at the Curragh (8f, good) 46 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.

Bellaphina^t¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: James Ryan| T: J A Kinsella| OR: 91| D

12/1

Useful mare. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at the Curragh (7f, good, 13/2) 11 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Dance Night Andday. This is more demanding.

Form: 184-341

(6)

Bluedrum^p²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 98| D

50/1

Useful filly. 80/1, 11 lengths eighth of 11 to Copacabana Sands in Ballycorus Stakes at this course (7.2f, soft) 28 days ago. Opposable from a win point of view.

Form: 7324-58

(2)

Dance Night Andday¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: R O'Sullivan| OR: 96| BF| CD

11/2

Useful mare. C&D winner. 11/2, creditable 1¼ lengths second of 12 to Bellaphina in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good) 11 days ago, running on. Enjoys a big swing at the weights with that rival here and she enters calculations.

Form: 818-452

(5)

Duckadilly²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Ben Coen| T: Daniel McLoughlin| D

9/2

Twice-raced winner. 6/1, won 7-runner minor event at Fairyhouse (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago, impressively. Open to progress and may well take this step up in class in her stride.

Form: 1-1

(1)

Chantez⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 99| CD

3/1

Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. Hooded for 1st time, 8 lengths sixth of 8 to Vera's Secret in Cornelscourt Stakes (11/2) at this course (7.2f, good) 60 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Yard has landed this race 5 times since 2010 and she's one to consider.

Form: 211-76

(7)

Easy Mover^t1⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Wayne Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 92

22/1

Fairly useful filly. 18/1, 9¾ lengths last of 8 to Vera's Secret in Cornelscourt Stakes at this course (7.2f, good) 60 days ago, slowly away. Tongue strap on 1st time and needs to find improvement from somewhere.

Form: 1843-98

(3)

Temperance¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Chris Hayes| T: Miss K McGivern| OR: 82

66/1

Fairly useful filly. Winner at Naas in May. Last of 5 in minor event at Naas (5.9f, good, 9/2) 15 days ago, missing break. Looks up against it.

Form: 242155

Forecasts

Vera's Secret (11/8), Chantez (3/1), Duckadilly (9/2), Dance Night Andday (11/2), Bellaphina (12/1), Easy Mover (22/1), Bluedrum (50/1), Temperance (66/1)

Though it seems safe to assume that DUCKADILLY hasn't been the easiest to train, she looked good when scoring back from a year off at Fairyhouse and may well be capable of maintaining her 100% record up in class here. Vera's Secret looks a big threat back at 7f having acquitted herself well in Group 2 company over a mile at the Curragh, while Dance Night Andday is third on the list ahead of Chantez.
