Royal Entry^v²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: W J Lee| T: P Twomey| OR: 94

9/4

Versatile filly who has improved switched to this yard, opening her account in a Cork maiden (12f) in May. Bettered that form when good fourth of 8 in listed race at this course (2m) 3 weeks ago and she's an interesting handicap debutant for yard boasting a fine strike rate.

Form: 292-214

Lady Lunette^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Jack Kearney⁽³⁾| T: R P Cody| OR: 86| BF

9/1

16/5, sixth of 9 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 073-036

La Guapisima^b1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Gary Carroll| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 97

33/1

First run since leaving Christopher Head when seventh of 8 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good, 22/1) on IRE debut 27 days ago. May step up on that given it was her first start for 7 months and blinkers now go on.

Form: 11472-7

Fiver Friday¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Robert Whearty⁽³⁾| T: Paul Traynor| OR: 84| D

22/1

Briefly looked a threat before folding tamely over hurdles on penultimate outing and again below form returned to this sphere when eighth of 9 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good to firm, 18/1) 19 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 61584-8

(7)

Ob La Di^p,t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: J A Powell⁽³⁾| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 82

6/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Gowran (9.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago, keeping on. Not dismissed for all a return to further may suit ideally.

Form: 100-055

(1)

Navy Waters^v²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Nathan Crosse| T: W McCreery| OR: 76| CD

9/2

U S Navy Flag filly who confirmed promise of her opening pair of efforts with a visor fitted when winning 8-runner maiden at this course (10.5f, good to soft) 22 days ago, staying on to lead post. Likely she can do better again now handicapping and shortlisted.

Form: 221

(2)

Sound Of Lightning^h1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Wayne Lordan| T: Donnacha O'Brien| OR: 85

13/8

Fastnet Rock filly who made it third time lucky in a Naas maiden (1m) in May and again ran well when fourth of 12 on handicap debut at Leopardstown (9f) 16 days ago, faring best of those held up. Expected to be thereabouts with a hood now enlisted.

Form: 3014

Forecasts

Sound Of Lightning (13/8), Royal Entry (9/4), Navy Waters (9/2), Ob La Di (6/1), Lady Lunette (9/1), Fiver Friday (22/1), La Guapisima (33/1)

SOUND OF LIGHTNING fared best of those held up when finishing a good fourth on handicap debut at Leopardstown 99f) 16 days ago and, with this step back up in trip looking a positive, she makes a good deal of appeal for the stable that landed this prize 12 months ago. Navy Waters and Royal Entry can emerge as the lead dangers.
