Timiniya was a disappointing odds-on favourite at Clonmel where she faded after making the running though the ground was very testing and she's more likely to hang on for longer. ELYSIAN PLAINS also started a short price at Killarney and looked like winning before finding little when asked. That was over 1m3f on heavy going and this should be more to his liking. Mazzuri is an obvious threat after a short-head defeat in what looked a decent fillies' maiden on good ground at Cork and normal progress will see her difficult to keep out of the frame. Shifted Strategy has had plenty of chances but he's run well against decent opposition and his young rider's claim should be a help.
