3/1
In fine form last year, won a Group 1 event at Longchamp in October. While that didn't look the strongest race for the grade, she ought to appreciate the drop in class and can go well here, despite having to concede a penalty. Possibly better at 7f.

Has won four of her nine starts including a career best in Listed company at Newmarket when last seen in October. Will love the fast ground here and could do even better this campaign; not one to rule out despite the step up in class.

11/8
Group 2 winner at Leopardstown last year and produced a fair effort when sixth of 14 in the Lockinge last time. Sweated up before the start there and remains capable of better so has to be one to be interested in down in class against her own sex.

20/1
Career best effort when getting her head in front at Naas last time out on just her second start for this yard. Likely capable of better still, particularly if she can settle better and could go well, despite this looking like a deeper race.

9/2
A seven-time winner who bolted up in a C&D handicap here last time out. That was very impressive and quite possibly more to come on just her third start for this yard; respected despite the step up in class here.

Improved from debut to win a maiden next time out but has failed to hit the frame in six starts since that win and looks out of her depth here. Wears first-time blinkers.

9/1
Group 3 winner at Tipperary towards the end of last season. Respectable effort at Naas on her return and could conceivably come on for that run. Interesting contender with the yard in form but perhaps wants softer ground than what's likely here.

Forecasts

I Can Fly (11/8), One Master (3/1), Red Tea (9/2), Beshaayir (8/1), Yulong Gold Fairy (9/1), Normandel (20/1), Shekiba (66/1)

16:10 Curragh - 25 May 2019 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

BESHAAYIR has a fair bit to find on form, but she's likely to be available at decent odds and there's every chance she has more to come this season, particularly on fast ground. I Can Fly certainly warrants respect back down in class here and Normandel could have more to give if she settles better.

  3. Normandel
