Horse A-Z
Steadily progressive mare. Took keen hold when beaten over 7 lengths (sixth of 16) on return at Roscommon. Hard to be confident she'll reverse form with once-raced Madame Du Berlais.

Timeform
Flat-bred mare who seemingly appreciated the sharp track when 6½ lengths third of 15 on debut at Killarney. This looks a much stronger race, though.
|
Timeform
Poet's Word mare. Dam (h117), bumper/2m hurdle winner, sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Glens Melody and useful hurdler (stayed 3¼m) Lean Araig out of useful hurdler/chase winner up to 2½m Glens Music. One of the more likely types, even with Patrick Mullins looking elsewhere.
|
Timeform
Beat a few of these when 4 lengths second of 16 on debut at Roscommon. That was an encouraging start considering she wasn't best placed, however, this is tougher with winning pointers/Mullins newcomers to contend with.

Nothing in either start to suggest she'll be making an impact in this company.

Well-held fourth in bumper at Leopardstown on debut. Couldn't match that form over a trip that should have suited at Limerick (19f) later in March. Cheekpieces added for return and has plenty to find.

4/1
Wide-margin winner of a point in April before shaping encouragingly when 2¾ lengths third in a Wexford bumper on return. That form sets the standard of those with experience (runner-up won since).
|
Timeform
Steadily improving mare. Probably should have finished third when beaten over 3¼ lengths at Sligo last time. Needs more again but worth a market check for shrewd yard who won this corresponding race in 2023.

Showed ability when 9¾ lengths third on debut at Limerick in late-May. Will need to improve on that now pitched into a better race sporting a first-time tongue strap.
|
Timeform
Went backwards from her debut in terms of form and application when well beaten at Cork earlier this month.
|
Timeform
Doctor Dino filly. Half-sister to 4 winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Fleur In The Park, stays. Dam (c141/h115), 17f-21f chase winner (including Group 1). Makes obvious appeal on paper for powerful yard who've won the previous 2 renewals of this with a newcomer.

€8,000 3-y-o, €35,000 4-y-o, Soldier of Fortune filly. Dam (b89), lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to French hurdler (2m-19f winner) Black Kit and French hurdler/chaser (17f-3m winner) Politikar. Won small-field point in May. Market should guide on Rules debut. Wears tongue strap.

Held back in experience on debut at Tramore in late May. Will need to leave that form well behind, though jockey booking does catch the eye.
|
Timeform
Harzand filly. Half-sister to fair hurdler Parisian Fashion (2½m winner) and bumper winner/fair hurdler Phantom Gold (2½m winner). Dam, multiple bumper winner, also useful 2m/17f hurdle winner. Yard isn't a regular source of debut bumper winners.

Yeats filly. Dam unraced. Off mark in points at second attempt in late April. Yard (already on the scoresheet at this meeting) knows the time of day with its bumper horses.

Vadamos filly. Half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful 21f hurdle winner Demandrivingdouvan. Dam, ran once on Flat, half-sister to St Leger winner Bollin Eric. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in points in March. That form doesn't look anything special but still worth a market check.

Getaway filly. Dam unraced half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 3¼m) Hillcrest and fairly useful hurdler (stays 2¾m) Disco Dancer out of useful hurdler/chaser (winner up to 19f) Shop Dj. Joint favourite and every chance when fell last sole start in points in April. Interesting Rules debutant.
|
Timeform
Old Persian filly. Half-sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Miami Present (winner up to 3m), stayed 3¼m: dam, lightly raced over hurdles, 7f/1m winner on Flat, half-sister to untrustworthy but fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 2½m) Moon Over Miami. Other newcomers appeal more.

Forecasts

Fleur Dino (3/1), Tamara Jane (4/1), Glens Sonata (4/1), Sarahs Lawn (6/1), Whizz Bizz (8/1), Madame Du Berlais (10/1), She Was The One (11/1), Shadonagh (12/1), Aodha's Arrow (16/1), Back In Favour (20/1), Tanga Mugi (20/1), Techno Dj (25/1), Bayswater Bloom (33/1), Withmylittleeye (33/1), Gunner Girl (33/1), Fortunate Miss (50/1), No Pass Port (66/1), Eleen Alana (66/1), Bluebell Breeze (100/1), Theboss'sdaughter (125/1), Nancy Wheeler (500/1)

Verdict

FLEUR DINO makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and may continue Willie Mullins' recent domination of this race. Glens Sonata looks no slouch on paper, either, and she could make it a 1-2 for the yard. Tamara Jane looks the pick of those with experience under Rules, with Techno DJ an interesting type from the pointing scene.
