12:30 Happiest
Joseph O’Brien runs four here, the only one to have run being Annie’s Angel, who has apprentice championship-seeking Wayne Hassett claiming 5lb, while of the three newcomers, riding arrangements suggest that Thilos and Love Is Blind are the better fancied.
However, HAPPIEST could usurp the quartet here, a couple of lengths ahead of Annie’s Angel at Thurles when still green and who likely has more to offer. Spicy Margarita is worth a market watch.
13:00 Vassula Ryden
Just denied at Bellewstown last time, VASSULA RYDEN could get off the mark for the season off 1lb higher on ground that suits. Pepper Noir, Thrifty Of Digby, Sylkie, Pandion Power, and Speckled Meadow are dangers.
13:30 Local Lad
Arguably unlucky not to beat a Ballydoyle colt at Naas last time, LOCAL LAD can make amends today and take care of Mississippi River from the same source. Tribal Nation should be involved too.
14:00 Now
A running on second over just short of a mile at Bellewstown last time, NOW should be suited by this stiff 7f and can get off the mark. Your Call and Unique Journey can run well. Several of these are making their nursery debuts and could find improvement so market moves should be noted.
14:35 Dollerina (NAP)
Though DOLLERINA (NAP) didn’t repeat the form of her Group race 2yo exploits in two starts earlier this term, she may have benefitted from a freshening up, and this looks like a good opportunity for her. Her stablemate Whisper A Prayer plus Ina Mina look her main dangers.
15:10 Little Keilee
A case can be made for plenty. The hat-trick seeker Pimstrel should go well again, but she’s been handed a tough draw, as has Kinda Tiny, who won this race last year.
Preference is for LITTLE KEILEE, who finished fourth behind that rival in this in 2023 and is much better off at the weights now. She went close at Roscommon on her penultimate start, she has run well over C&D on heavy more than once, and her yard has been amongst the winners. Goldrush Kid is another with claims and Shawaamekh likes it here and has each-way claims at bigger odds.
15:45 Narlita
An open-looking race here. Jabbar has been in fine form and he should go well again if handling the likely testing ground. Alfalfa will be suited by the step back up to this trip and has a chance, too.
Soul Of Spain has to prove he can be competitive off his current mark and this trip is a worry for Clear Quartz, so it might be worth chancing NARLITA. She was runner-up in this race last year off this mark, she handles heavy ground and her jockey takes off a handy 3lb. Fairy Wings is another one to consider.
16:20 Carried With Love
Many of these have questions to answer. Cafe Con Leche is of obvious interest and should go well, especially if the money comes. Dumb Love is in form and has won on heavy so she is considered and Nans View is another with claims if she stays this longer trip.
However, the relatively unexposed 3yo fillies CARRIED WITH LOVE, Saith Seren, and Vierson make the most appeal with a narrow preference for Joseph O’Brien’s charge. She is bred to relish this step up in trip and the testing ground should be fine for her.
