Going - Straight - Yielding Round - Yielding, yielding to soft in places. Overcast

Formscan By Michael Graham - Aidan O'Brien's CACTUS is taken to improve upon an opening third over 5f in Naas this month. This Wootton Bassett filly holds a plethora of Group-race entries including at the highest level in the Phoenix Stakes and Moyglare Stud Stakes at the Curragh. Krasimir is an obvious danger after staying on for third on debut at Fairyhouse when notably strong in the betting for that assignment. The market should be informative in relation to the newcomers and Chicago Pope is certainly one to check for support as Johnny Murtagh's charge has an entry in a Group 2 next month. Cisterna was unplaced in a hot maiden at the Curragh in May and could reap the benefit of that outing.
