Best odds: 10-1 (Bet365).

This filly has a brilliant record at this track (four wins from eight starts) and caught the eye on her return to action at Dundalk where she travelled well before fading entering the final furlong as the lack of a recent run began to take its toll. 

She should strip fitter with that outing under her belt (she was also weak in the market beforehand which further suggests the run was needed) and a strong case can be made for her on her previous efforts. 

The five-year-old arguably produced a career best (on turf) when third in a valuable premier handicap at the Curragh in July last year. She certainly appears a better performer on the all-weather, though, and won a similar race to this at Dundalk in 2022 off a rating of 81. 

That makes her look nicely treated off a rating of 76, and stepping back down to six furlongs shouldn’t inconvenience her here (she also has a course and distance win next to her name) despite racing predominantly over seven furlongs for the past couple of seasons. 

Chris Hayes gets on well with her and is booked to ride again, so I’m slightly surprised the selection has opened up at 10-1. 

Best odds: 7-2.

Brave Thought showed glimmers of promise on her first few starts last year but took a big step forward when upped to 1m4f at this track in November, and again went close over this course and distance the following month.

The form of her second two starts ago has been franked (the winner won off a 9lb higher mark next time out) and was only narrowly denied last time out in a similar contest. 

This will be just her eighth outing and she should have more to offer over middle distances, while Luke Comer's team have generally been running well recently. 

If the selection repeats either of her past two efforts, then she should be going close again here as she seeks her first victory, and her draw in stall two should allow her to get some cover early.
