150/1

Fairly useful filly. 22/1, creditable 4½ lengths fifth of 11 to Zarinsk in Cornelscourt Stakes at Leopardstown (8f, heavy) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Difficult ask.

Dower House^t1²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W M Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 96

100/1

Fairly useful filly. Creditable 2½ lengths third of 14 to Indian Wish in listed race at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft, 15/2) 25 days ago, met some trouble. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Seemingly Aidan O'Brien's third-string.

Form: 2175-63

Eternal Silence²⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 102

28/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 6¾ lengths third of 11 to Tahiyra in Moyglare Stud Stakes at this course (7f, heavy, 50/1), running on. Off 8 months. Should progress but minor place claims if likely the best she can hope for.

Jackie Oh³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J A Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 102| BF| D

18/1

Twice-raced winner. Winner at Naas in March. ¾-length second of 7 to Village Voice in listed race at Navan (10f, heavy, 11/10) 36 days ago, slowly away. Open to improvement.

Form: 12

Meditate²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 113| C| D

10/3

Smart filly. Course winner. Below form 11¼ lengths sixth of 20 to Mawj in 1000 Guineas at Newmarket (8f, soft, 5/1) 21 days ago. Fair bit to find with Tahiyra on that evidence.

Form: 11221-6

(1)

Tahiyra²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C D Hayes| T: D K Weld| OR: 118| BF| C

2/5

Course winner. ½-length second of 20 to Mawj in 1000 Guineas at Newmarket (8f, soft, 6/4) 21 days ago, just failing. Remains open to improvement and she will prove hard to beat.

Form: 11-2

(5)

Tarawa²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W J Lee| T: D K Weld| OR: 102

12/1

Thrice-raced winner. 1¼ lengths second of 11 to Zarinsk in Cornelscourt Stakes (15/2) at Leopardstown (8f, heavy) 21 days ago, conceding first run. Open to progress and while she is clearly the stable second-string behind Tahiyra, this filly is not without each-way hope.

Form: 51-2

(9)

You Send Me²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C T Keane| T: J A Stack| OR: 102

28/1

Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Cork in April. ½-length second of 6 to Power Under Me in Amethyst Stakes at Leopardstown (8f, heavy, 6/1) 21 days ago, having run of race. Needs to raise her game.

Form: 5-12

Forecasts

Tahiyra (2/5), Meditate (10/3), Tarawa (12/1), Jackie Oh (18/1), You Send Me (28/1), Eternal Silence (28/1), Breege (50/1), Aspen Grove (50/1), Dower House (100/1), Comhra (150/1)

It's hard to look beyond TAHIYRA, who was so impressive when brushing Meditate aside in the Moyglare here last term and she was well clear of the rest when touched off by Mawj in the English 1000 Guineas on return at Newmarket. This will be just her fourth career start, so it's reasonable to anticipate improvement. Stablemate Tarawa looks promising and she is preferred to the Aidan O'Brien-trained duo Meditate and Jackie Oh.
