Staysound Susie¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: Jimmy Dalton⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 84| CD

4/1

Won this in 2024 and scored at the Curragh (6f, heavy) in April. Probably needed a recent outing there after 4 months off and should be sharper now. Any further easing of the ground in her favour.

Form: 1-53160

6/1

Promise on first 2 starts before making it third time lucky in maiden at Down Royal (5f, good, evens) 25 days ago, always holding on. Makes handicap debut from a mark which demands improvement.

Mayson filly who was much improved from her debut when second of 11 in 6f maiden at Dundalk last year. Has a lengthy break to overcome on handicap debut.

By The Lake³³

Weight: 9-11| Age: 3

T: Derek McCormack J: Colin Keane

Forecasts

Rosato (10/3), By The Lake (7/2), Staysound Susie (4/1), Motta Alta (9/2), Saint Agatha (6/1), Forza Magico (6/1), Baiana (9/1), Flash Of Fire (9/1), My Cubby Bear (12/1)

BY THE LAKE is taken to build on her promising handicap/stable debut last month and strike under Colin Keane. Flash of Fire made a positive start for the Johnny Murtagh stable when fourth at Punchestown a fortnight ago and is taken to build on that and provide the chief threat ahead of Staysound Susie, who won this in 2024 and would be very much at home should the ground go soft/heavy.
