17:10 – Simpson’s Paradox

A high-class maiden. SIMPSON’S PARADOX has the pedigree to be special, as does Alfred Munnings. Note Tenerife also, though he seems the Ballydoyle second-string in a hot race.

17:45 – Paris Peacock

Not a strong maiden and it is difficult to see past PARIS PEACOCK, who has twice finished second in stronger events than this. Free To Party should have progressed from his debut but will find it tough to give 5lb to the selection. Manbehindthemoney should be involved.

18:20 – Asisaid

Typically wide-open but a chance is taken on handicap debutant ASISAID, who shaped encouragingly over 7f in a Gowran maiden last time and has potential. Purple Gown might reverse Naas form with Magic Charm on 7lb better terms today and both should run well. Stop On Red is handicapped to run well, while Zerinda should have improved from her seasonal debut.

18:55 – Alma Libra

ALMA LIBRE can keep up Natalia Lupini’s good form. She has threatened to win one of these twice here already and has more to give. Buenaventura is noted switching to Turf. Likely Essential Part can play a part.

19:30 – Kyprios

After an impressive comeback win at Navan, KYPRIOS will have to massively underperform today to get beaten. The worry is that he has twice been beaten on his second start of the season but looks more mature now. Pineapple Express might chase him home.

20:00 – Black Hawk Eagle

Having got going too late to reel in an all-the-way winner over 1m1f at Gowran on Wednesday, BLACK HAWK EAGLE (nap) can gain compensation here if making a quick return. Freepark goes best at this track and found the ground too soft last time, so is a player, as is the consistent Clueless Hill. Fox Fearless got hit for 6lb after his Bellewstown win but can go well, while Pretty Little Liar ran well at the same track last time and has a squeak.

20:30 – Dances With Stars

DANCES WITH STARS should be fine back on Turf under his experienced apprentice. He continues to progress. This is a nice race and Farout is fascinating. Note also Safecracker.
