Fairyhouse preview Raymonda appears to have plenty going for her on seasonal debut in the Raise Funds For Your Club Or Charity @ Fairyhouse Fillies Race at Fairyhouse on Wednesday. Dermot Weld's filly was impressive when winning her maiden over the same seven-furlong trip at the Curragh on quick ground at the back end of last season. Afterwards, Weld commented he hoped she would be a nice stakes filly this year. She holds an entry in the Group Three Brownstown Stakes at this track next month. Kevin Prendergast's Cool Thunder is a worthy opponent having finished fifth in the Irish 1,000 Guineas on rain-softened ground. Her maiden victory came on good to firm ground at Naas last October. Magical Fire's fifth place in a Listed sprint at Naas puts her right in the picture for the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Fillies Maiden. Blairmayne won well here from a wide draw last week and should be popular for the Summer Family Day @ Fairyhouse July 10th Handicap, under a 5lb penalty. Kieren Fallon has been booked again. Weld's Kidd Malibu was beaten by a neck at Navan last time but could gain compensation in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Maiden. Time To Reason and Flying Fairies should keep him up to his work. After a string of duck eggs, Talented Kid popped up at 16-1 in Gowran Park. He clearly relished the quicker ground and more of the same is on offer in the Coral.ie Bet 5 euros Get 20 euros In Free Bets Handicap. Joseph O'Brien has made a blistering start to his new training career so Udogu will be on plenty of shortlists for the Coral Money Back If Beaten By A Length Or Less Handicap. The five-year-old gelding scored in Leopardstown when last seen. O'Brien's Navegante has claims in the Next Racing At Fairyhouse June 29th Handicap, however, Navan winner Pirolo looks the one to beat.
