Verdict

Lily Of Killarney won a point-to-point in March but showed little over hurdles until landing a Downpatrick handicap. She was well supported to do so and a 7lb rise shouldn't prevent another big run. Kauto Mill Rose is in foal and could hardly have been more impressive in landing a Down Royal maiden last week. This is likely to be Harry Kelly's mare's swansong and she will prove difficult to beat. However, ASITAPPENS produced his best run to date behind Baidin Fhelimi at Cork last month and, as the winner completed a double in better company subsequently, that looks strong form and he's taken to lose his maiden tag. Ennisnag is still a maiden after nine starts over hurdles but came closest to gaining that first success at Tramore where she made Jack The Hat pull out all the stops.
