Comment: Best effort for Ralph Beckett came over 7f on AW at Wolverhampton; ordinary form in three maiden runs for this stable over three different trip; slotted into handicap company effectively when beaten only a short head over this trip at Fairyhouse; winner Lively is due to put form to the test in the 2.30 race.

Comment: Encouraging debut run behind Woodshaw Whisper at Dundalk in March but well held twice since in turf maidens (cheekpieces tried latest now discarded) over further; of limited appeal entering handicaps but drop back in trip should suit but predicted rain may not.

Comment: Kingman filly comes from top-class Aga Khan family; promising Leopardstown debut in April when staying on late over 1m2f but didn't make the anticipated improvement following month when odds-on for similar contest, flashing tail and hanging for pressure; questions to answer after latest but has the ability to play a major role.

Comment: Siyouni filly cost 75,000gns as a yearling and 110,000euros as a breeze-up purchase; no real threat on both AW runs last winter for Danny Murphy, well-backed favourite on debut when tongue-tied; makes turf debut and first runner for rookie trainer.

Comment: River Boyne filly is second foal of a 1m winner (RPR 70), a sister to useful 6f-1m winner Sir Roderic, and half-sister to useful winners Comfort Line (7f/1m) and Dew Line (1m1f-1m4f); debutante possibly best watched.

Candleford Green

Jockey: S Foley Trainer: W P Mullins Age/Wt: 3/9-3 F: 2-6

Comment: Sea The Stars filly lost out narrowly over 7f at Leopardstown last October on sole start at two; favourite, denied a clear run from 1f out on seasonal return at Naas last month when 3/4l off Angelight; should appreciate this longer trip and no surprise if she turned the tables on that rival here; big player.
