FormscanBy Tom Weekes - DAME RAPIDE is rated 97 on the flat and ran well in a recent Down Royal maiden hurdle. Her flat rating improved from 45 to 97 in recent times and while her best form is on a sound surface, which is a concern with rain forecast, wasn't beaten too far in a Listed hurdle on easy ground last April and today rider claims 5lb. Letters To Juliet caught the eye at Sligo and while her two runs have been on good ground, has a national hunt pedigree so should handle easy ground. She should progress but the selection is more experienced. Zoomtime showed improvement when finishing second on good ground at Cork and also being national hunt-bred, should cope with easier ground. Nurse Garvey ran ok in an unplaced horses' maiden on her last run while C'est Rien ran well at Tipperary last October but has poor form since. Castle Ruby runs in a first-time cheekpieces.
