Cigamia²⁶⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 97| D

7/2

Useful filly. Looked unsuited by longer trip when 6 lengths ninth of 16 to Paris Peacock in Denny Cordell Lavarack & Lanwades Stud Fillies Stakes at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft, 11/2). Off 8 months. Respected under a penalty.

Beautiful Sunshine¹⁰⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Gary Carroll| T: A Murray| OR: 91

33/1

Useful filly. Produced a couple of good efforts at this level last season and ran well when fourth of 8 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 33/1). Off 107 days. Merits consideration.

Didn'thavemuchtodo²⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 103| D

9/2

Useful filly. Good 3 lengths sixth of 13 to Above The Curve in Blandford Stakes at the Curragh (10f, heavy, 33/1). Off 9 months. Trip may be shorter than optimum but she's expected to be bang there nonetheless.

Esculenta^p1³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: R P Cody| OR: 87| D

18/1

Fairly useful filly. 15/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Gowran (8f, soft) 32 days ago, having benefit of enterprising ride. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Must improve in this grade.

Form: 6200-21

Giladah³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Chris Hayes| T: D K Weld| OR: 86| BF| D

13/2

Inishnee^h1,t1⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Nathan Crosse| T: W McCreery| OR: 99| D

80/1

Useful filly. First run since leaving M. Delcher Sanchez when well-beaten last of 9 to Laurel in listed race at Kempton (8f) on yard debut 62 days ago. Hood on 1st time , tongue strap back on. Lots to prove.

Forecasts

Dower House (9/4), Cigamia (7/2), Didn'thavemuchtodo (9/2), Giladah (13/2), Cadeau Belle (9/1), Maybe Just Maybe (10/1), Beginnings (12/1), Esculenta (18/1), Beautiful Sunshine (33/1), Inishnee (80/1)

DIDN'THAVEMUCHTODO was gradually progressive last season and should have enough in hand on these terms to make the drop back to1m a successful one. Dower House was down the field in the Irish 1000 Guineas last time but could make greater impact at this level, whilst Beautiful Sunshine ran a fine race at Dundalk when last seen and can complete the placings.
