Despite being set stiff tasks on all three of her starts to date, Paddy Twomey's TREASURE TROVE has shown a useful level of form and the daughter of Siyouni can take advantage of the drop in class. Mether should benefit from his debut experience at Tipperary last month and is a noteworthy contender down in grade, while Kodi Red, who showed potential when fifth in a Navan maiden on his first racecourse start, also makes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Treasure Trove 2nd Mether 3rd Kodi Red

SUPER CUB showed promise when running on for third on his latest outing at Fairyhouse and Daniel King's 7lb claim could aid his cause further. He was only a length and a quarter behind Curraheen Princess on his last outing over 5f, so must be respected. Baby Rosabella must be feared on her handicap debut having not been far away in her two most recent maiden contests, while Un Bacio Ancora and Our Louise could also make their presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Super Cub 2nd Baby Rosabella 3rd Un Bacio Ancora

COLLECTIVE POWER produced his best effort on turf when runner-up at Cork earlier in the month and the four-year-old is in the right hands to continue his progression through the handicapping ranks. Plezantlysurprised gained a first career victory at Dundalk in April when benefiting from the application of cheekpieces and he commands plenty of respect if the headgear has the same desired effect, while a gelding operation may see Forca Brasil take a step forward from his return at Cork.
Prediction : 1st Collective Power 2nd Plezantlysurprised 3rd Forca Brasil

The progressive Curraheen Princess arrives in search of her hat-trick and commands the utmost respect but preference is for DUN NA SEAD. She finished fourth at Fairyhouse on her seasonal reappearance last month behind rivals rated 101, 103 and 101 respectively. Kieran Potter's charge makes her handicap debut from a mark of 85, which would appear to be lenient and with improvement likely, she can strike. Harmony Rose enters calculations while Maggie Thunder, who finished third at Cork earlier this month, shouldn't be written off.
Prediction : 1st Dun Na Sead 2nd Curraheen Princess 3rd Harmony Rose

Mobilise is a newcomer to consider as his full-brother Threat won a pair of Group 2s as a juvenile, but experience counts for a lot in these races so PRETTY PERSUASION gets the vote. Willie McCreery's filly overcame a slow start to run on into fourth over slightly shorter at Listowel on debut and could be better in this. Woodcock Flight was slowly away and ran green last time so is better judged on his debut third at the Curragh.
Prediction : 1st Pretty Persuasion 2nd Mobilise 3rd Woodcock Flight

19:50 Down Royal

ARE WE DREAMING has shown winning potential to place in two maidens at Naas and Listowel and, with improvement still to come, the daughter of Kendargent can make it third time lucky with apprentice rider Nathan Crosse taking off a handy 3lb on top of the fillies allowance. Chesterton may prove most troublesome from a form perspective, though any market move for Ger Lyons' newcomer Texas Sun would have to be taken seriously.
Prediction : 1st Are We Dreaming 2nd Texas Sun 3rd Chesterton

20:20 Down Royal

Course winner Ever Rock produced a career-best effort when scoring at Fairyhouse on her latest start and the six-year-old holds good claims. However, she may have to play second fiddle to HELEN DE POURTALES, who wasn't beaten far when runner-up at Gowran Park on her most recent run. Eglish shaped well on her debut for James McAuley at Fairyhouse three weeks ago and is noted, while Three Macks, who still has the scope to progress, cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Helen De Pourtales 2nd Ever Rock 3rd Eglish
