A really strong Sunday card at Naas, where the ground is soft, featuring the Group Three Stanerra Stakes and a couple very good saless race worth a lot of money.

I'll be staying clear of the two-year-old races punting-wise, but ENNISTYMON gets the vote in the Stanerra.

There's a proper turnout for the race which is good and Kastasa is a very worthy favourite. She could make up in a very smart Group One filly as the season progresses, with Arc weekend possibly a target if all goes well here.

But at 6/5 I'm prepared to let her run at that and I thought the Aidan O'Brien-trained Ennistymon, along with stablemate Passion, were both a spot of value at around 5/1.

Slight preference is for the former, who might just have more upside following a good comeback run over nine furlongs in Gowran Park when outpaced by another stable companion.

I don't know for sure, but just expect her to be ridden a bit more conservatively than Passion and Ennistymon looks a good each-way bet as I can see her passing horses late and laying it down the favourite.

I'm hoping she's one of those Galileos that just keeps bouncing back from a performance that looked a bit below-par at first glance.

Shes untried on soft ground but she looked to handle some cut well enough at Royal Ascot in the Ribblesdale Stakes.

The other one I'm drawn to in the low-grade, 0-65 sprint handicap at the end of the card, with most firms going five places.

DROMBEG DUKE is a general 14/1 and this horse is relativel lightly raced for th e grade. He's only had 11 career starts and was second on good to yielding ground at Tipperary last August and, crucially, was fourth on soft at Gowran the following month.

He went on to win at Dundalk off a mark of 47 in October and is only 7lb higher here. His recent comeback run 15 days ago was a good run. He was drawn in stall two and there was a major bias towards the higher numbers near the stands' side.

He was on the wing of the pack throughout and made good progress between the two and the one furlong marker before his effort petered out a little. With normal improvement and the booking of Shane Foley today, he ticks a lot of boxes and his action suggests he'll handle the going. The drop in trip certainly doesn't concern me as he travels well over seven furlongs.
