Fair maiden. Bit below form when fourth of 24 in maiden (9/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) on reappearance and went backwards from that when tenth of 14 over 7f at Down Royal 16 days ago. Looks one of her top yard's lesser lights.

Forecasts

Xerling (4/5), Osterode (3/1), Khafar (3/1), Sparky Sparky (9/2), Grande Cuvee (5/1), Cactus (9/1), McHenry Sunrise (22/1), Frosted Sky (33/1), Finika (40/1), In The Gloaming (40/1), Riot Star (50/1), You Smiled (100/1), Ballerina Dancer (100/1), West Sedona (200/1), Kula Bula Boyo (200/1), Little Roy (250/1)

XERLING will likely be tough to beat if reproducing the form she showed when runner-up on her Navan reappearance. Willie McCreery has a good record in this race so his newcomer Osterode is an interesting contender, particularly as Billy Lee, who rides the majority from the powerful Paddy Twomey yard, is on her rather than that stable's new recruit Khafar.
