SHOOT TO KILL would appear very well-in under these conditions as he is at least 8lb clear on official ratings. Stephen Thorne's charge can sometimes be slowly away but, with this drop in class, the eight-year-old may be able to get away with it. Conor Cusack rode his first winner in Limerick for Henry De Bromhead on Saturday and the 10lb claimer is once more entrusted with Catena Zapata. He has performed below par on his last couple of starts, but the application of first-time blinkers may spark a revival. Both Captain Hanley and Summer Island ran in Ayr on their latest starts, with the latter performing with credit on the back of strong market support.
Both of CATENA ZAPATA's victories so far have come on the AW but she has shown a high level of form on turf on soft ground and can take advantage of a significant drop in grade here. The rating of 78 she recorded in the spring is only bettered by Shoot To Kill, a 7f winner in the spring who looks the biggest danger. He might not be quite as happy on the softer surface as the selection unlike the unexposed Summer Island who did well to place last time having conceded first run to the front pair. That rival could complete the places.

National Stakes entries provide some clues in this open affair, with both DIAL ME IN and A Boy Named Susie holding the engagement. Experience may prove valuable so there is marginal preference for Joseph O'Brien's contender, who came from back in the field to just get up on the line in a Leopardstown maiden. The son of Awtaad was clearly learning on the job, suggesting he should progress, with the step up to a mile being of benefit too. The 185,000gns yearling Acclamatic showed some promise when fourth in a Naas barrier trial and should improve for that experience. Wyman is a son of Australia who cost 100,000 euros as a yearling and is worth watching, with the market potentially providing some insight.
DIAL ME IN needed every yard when making a winning debut having missed the break and met trouble so is fancied to follow up now stepped up to a mile. The runner up that day was only narrowly denied next time so there is some substance to the form. Bellamano is another who finished strongly on debut and is expected to improve now upped in trip so rates the biggest danger ahead of previous winner Empty Wallet. That rival benefitted from a pace collapse that day and will need to prove his effectiveness on softer ground here.
180,000gns breeze-up purchase by Invincible Spirit; half-brother to Argirl, fair at 6f as 2yo; probably best watched on debut

Runner-up on debut, HELLORHIGHWATER can go one better. The son of Sergei Prokofiev was very professional and stuck to the task well, but was just unable to catch the winner. Iron Fist sets the standard with an official rating of 84 and he drops back into maiden company after a troubled run in a Curragh handicap. Jousting, who cost $1.2m as a yearling, faded in a Naas maiden last autumn but better is anticipated on his return. Adieu Spirit is also of interest because he cost 180,000gns in the Tattersalls Craven Breeze-Up sale and showed some promise when keeping on for fourth in a Naas barrier trial.
A strong maiden which can go to HELLORHIGHWATER who finished runner up first time out to a more experienced rival. He was well placed in a race dominated from the front that day but did plenty early to get his position having missed the break so improvement can be expected if he breaks on terms. Iron Fist is best forgiven his latest run where he was too keen before meeting trouble and is better judged on his previous maiden runs. A repeat of those would see him go close with the return to easier grounda. positive. Chester Nimitz found 6f too sharp last time but can complete the places stepped up to 1m for the first time.
Ran to form when 7l third in the Jannah Rose Stakes (Group 3) over 10f at Naas on her most recent run. Steadily progressive. Twice Group placed but may struggle to win at that level. Top course trainer.

RED LETTER sets the clear standard and should be able to get back to winning ways after narrowly losing out in a race of similar quality. Her two-year-old form obviously reads very well, running well on two occasions behind Irish 1,000 Guineas heroine Lake Victoria. Joseph O'Brien runs three in the race, with the apparent first-string Wannabe Royal, although she was held behind the selection on her latest start and it is hard to see a reversal of that form. The Ballydoyle contingent is headed by Ecstatic, who never figured up in grade in the Ribblesdale, but the drop in trip may aid her cause. The ever-consistent Fiery Lucy can go close once more in this company.
RED LETTER was thought highly enough to contest the 1000 Guineas earlier in the season and could have a class edge on these. She travelled best in the Kooyonga last time before being outstayed at a stiff track having raced freely but is taken to make amends in the same grade here. Fiery Lucy was only narrowly denied in the Weld Park last year and has proven herself consistent at Listed/Group level since so looks the clear danger ahead of And So To Bed. That rival flattened out over a stretching 10f last time but has twice placed at Group level and could do again in this lower grade.
Back below last winning mark, returned to form when beaten a short-head off 60 at Dundalk last time. Effective from 7f to 1m on a sound surface and looks on a reasonable mark.
She has won four times from 7f to 1m on good to firm ground and on the all-weather. Beaten a short head by Ballymagreehan when second of 12 at 17-2 on her latest outing at Dundalk over 1m earlier this month.

STILL SHE BLOOMS was placed here in May and again forced the pace when only caught close home by Deuteronomy over 1m1f at Leopardstown last month. That latest effort came on soft ground so any significant rain shouldn't be an issue. Liamo and Exceeding are two last-start winners to consider, while Relevant Range was third in a charity race at the Curragh last month and is dropping down to an attractive mark. First reserve Unterberg is another for the shortlist if getting a run following a decisive win at Leopardstown last week.
STILL SHE BLOOMS is still a maiden but has shown a consistent level of form on varying ground at 7f-1m. She was a touch unlucky last time when caught late having been ridden overly aggressively but can make amends here down in trip with a good draw from which to attack. Unterberg looks well treated on his cosy win last time on fast ground and will be a big danger if getting a run though he does need to prove himself effective on this softer surface. Jazz Dreamers has proven inconsistent since a lay off but did have the excuse of a poor draw last time so could bounce back and fight for a place.
Improved on recent form when stepped up in trip, winning a handicap by 1 1/4l off 56 over 10f at Navan last time; may have more to offer now she has her head in front.
A winner at 10-1 at Navan over 1m 2f (good) on her latest outing earlier this month, beating Clever And Classy by 1 1/4l. Carries a 7lb penalty today for that success.

Ideally suited by the trip when beaten a short-neck off 57 at Dundalk last time; returning from a very lengthy absence.
He has won three times from 1m 3f to 1m 5f on the all-weather, but last win was over two years ago. Third of 14 behind Dark Street beaten a head at 7-1 on his latest outing at Dundalk over 1m 3f in September '23.

CELTIC DRUID has struck form recently and followed up a promising third at Leopardstown when successfully stepping up in trip at Bellewstown. The Tom McCourt-trained gelding appeared to have a bit in hand when beating better-fancied stablemate Maxwell Smart, with Tassarolo about eight lengths back in fourth, and can score again off his revised mark. Metamorpheus had the reserves Together Aclaim and Slieve Bearnagh both behind when third to Stepdance over a similar trip at Limerick last weekend, while Dolce Far Niente and Chou Chou have both won recently and now step up in distance.
METAMORPHEUS remains a maiden in this sphere but he is well treated on his best form in both codes and is the selection here. He ran into a well treated progressive rival when placed last time and the easier ground here is no issue. Tassarolo was a beaten favourite on his flat return but he remains unexposed in this sphere and is potentially thrown in judged on his hurdles win. He can challenge along with the in form Dolce Far Niente who went a bit too fast last time but has her stamina to prove up in distance. Of those at bigger prices Ms Messi appeals most as she ran well over a stretching 13f last time and has mileage in her mark on her maiden form now dropped in distance.
Perhaps not suited by the ground and probably did not stay when down the field in the Amateurs' Race at Listowel last time; returning from a long layoff; needs to improve.
Placed once in three starts; but has won two hurdles. Well beaten at 16-1 behind Seddon when 11th of 12 on his latest outing at Listowel over 1m 6f (soft) in September last year.

IFITWASME won both on the Flat and over hurdles last year and impressed on his reappearance at Listowel last month when successfully stepped up to two miles on the level. This trip should provide enough of a stamina test, although a 10lb hike does make life more difficult. Love Sonnet appreciated a step up to 1m3f when scoring on her handicap debut here in May and is an obvious threat with plenty of scope for further improvement. Lady Kai won twice last year, including here over the extended 1m3f, and came home well for fourth on her seasonal debut at Gowran. Coulstys Way is another to consider.
The consistent Lady Kai was a winner over shorter at this meeting last year and is entitled to come on for her reappearance run so merits plenty of respect. However the form of that return has had knocks and she could be vulnerable to the unexposed LOVE SONNET who finished powerfully when making a winning handicap debut over 11f suggesting that this longer trip could bring out more. She had a next time out winner in behind that day and the booking of Keane again hints another big run is expected. Surrey Force needed the run on his recent stable debut but will also be in the mix if back to the level of his UK form.
