Side with Songo
Aidan O'Brien's Down Mexico Way and Dermot Weld's Society Milliner have some decent efforts to their credit, but neither appears particularly reliable and Sogno Vederde is preferred.
John Oxx's filly made a promising return at Clonmel eleven days ago, finishing two and a half lengths second behind the smart Sweet Firebird.
The daughter of Green Desert ran all the way to the line and can only come on for the outing.
There is little doubt that Patrick Prendergast's Waterways is the form horse in the Listed Swordlestown Stud Sprint Stakes for fillies.
She battled on in fine style to beat Ba Foxtrot a length and a half at the Curragh last month and the form received a big boost when the runner-up bolted in at Epsom on Saturday.
But Aidan O'Brien's once-raced Rumplestiltskin could have her in measure, in receipt of 5lbs.
She was given a smashing introduction by Seamus Heffernan to sweep through late and beat Always A Star, who reopposes on the same terms, half a length on this track.
Osterhase, who was impressive when making a successful seasonal debut at Fairyhouse - beating English challenger Turnkey a neck - gets the nod in the Naas Sprint Stakes.
At Tralee today (precautionary inspection at 7.30) John Oxx's Artist's Muse should take the Lynam Merit Maiden, even if she was a costly failure when a disappointing third to Society Hostess and Much Reality at Gowran Park.
Ercodi, third of 25 behind Man Of Repute at Fairyhouse in April, is fancied to win the Bumper, while Ruby Walsh can return from a break and guide Adrian Maguire's Hardwick to victory in the Fenit Maiden Hurdle.
