FormscanBy Michael Graham - Judging by the number of fillies who hold Group-race entries, this could be a very hot race. Aidan O'Brien's DELIGHTFUL has to be of interest, on her first start, as a sister of the brilliant Minding and the top-class Tuesday. She has entries up to Group 1 level. Her stablemate, Unless, has the experience of two outings and came in a close third in both, albeit a beaten favourite in those races. She has a plethora of notable entries. The market expected Joseph O'Brien's Basil Martini to make a winning debut in a fillies' maiden as she went off even-money favourite, however, she was unable to reel in the winner. She is up in trip and should be sharper for that opening effort. Her stablemate, Madly Truly, didn't have the clearest route at Leopardstown, but posted a solid second place. Again, they both have considerable future options. Paddy Twomey's Shelton didn't feature when mid-division at the Curragh. She is highly likely to put that run in the rear-view mirror.
