Just touched off in a 5f premier handicap at the Curragh; same mark today and go well

Soundly beaten on return at Navan but has been dropped 4lb since; is capable of a big run
NR (5)	Petit Calvados Bay J:TBC T:E J Oneill	J: T:E J Oneill	129	—	6114-6	77	101	95	26d	—	—	-4	11.2	1.13/1	9/2 18%
Should have improved from her seasonal/Irish debut and down 3lb so can be a player

Faces a much tougher task off a 10lb higher mark for Navan win but is in good form

Just denied at Cork; 2lb lower today and go well but can't afford to hang on this track
6 (6)	Curraheen Princess Chestnut J:Andrew Slattery T:N Stokes	J:Andrew Slattery T:N Stokes	127	—	3-0053	75	105	74	7d	—	—	-2	12.4	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Runner-up in this last year; is 6lb below her last winning mark so has to be feared
9 (2)	Greek Flower Bay J:Leigh Roche T:John James Feane	J:Leigh Roche T:John James Feane	119	—	23-630	67	98	74	28d	—	—	-5	7.9	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Well beaten when 10lb out of the handicap last time but races off her proper mark today
7 (4)	Freedom Falls Bay J:N G McCullagh T:Jack W Davison	J:N G McCullagh T:Jack W Davison	123	t	425-40	77	98	81	7d	—	—	+2	8.7	5.25/1	22 5%
Saddle slipped last week; should cope with the drop in trip as she has early speed
8 (8)	Excesso Velocidad Bay J:Wayne Hassett(10) T:Joseph Patrick Obrien	J:Wayne Hassett(10) T:Joseph Patrick Obrien	120	t	14-80	74	91	69	24d	—	—	+3	7	8.00/1	33 3%
Won a 6f Dundalk maiden on debut last November but hasn't matched that form since
