Going - Yielding to Soft (Soft after R5). Overcast

Formscan By Donal Murphy - With seven debutants in the line-up and not much form to go on, the market should be informative. A fine third on debut over the course and distance last month, SLI NA GHEALAI is one of the safer options. She stayed on nicely in the closing stages on that occasion and finished a place ahead of Mary The Priest, who had won on her previous start at Listowel. Courageous Strike also ran a fine race on debut, finishing second at Roscommon in May, with subsequent winner Lia Fail back in fifth. The chestnut colt is a half-brother to Rich, who managed to win on debut, finishing down the field on her most recent start in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot. With Ger Lyons saddling two of the 18 set to take part, it's interesting that Colin Keane is aboard the Noel Meade-trained Caught U Looking. Sixth behind the impressive Ylang Ylang on debut at the Curragh, she should be able to build on that performance. Stromberg, Mo Ghille Mar and Edvard Grieg are the most interesting of the newcomers.
