Row in with Westlake
Dermot Weld's colt ran with promise on his only outing as a juvenile and indicated, on his reappearance on this track in April, he may be a horse with a future.
The son of Sadler's Well finished third behind Mahler and Akua-Ba and the form has been working out reasonably well.
Mahler and fourth placed Prince Erik went on to score subsequently, although Akua'Ba has struggled to get her head in front.
The selection's dam, Rainbow Lake, won the 12 furlongs Lancashire Oaks and this full-brother to the Arlington Million winner, Powerscourt, could come into his own stepping up to a mile and a half for the first time.
Aidan O'Brien's once-raced Honolulu, a son of the brilliant Montjeu, has to be regarded as the main threat.
He made his debut at Roscommon last month when his stall was slow to open. Honolulu then stayed on strongly in the closing stages to be beaten a length and a neck into third behind Tamimi's History and Dance The Classics and it's possible will come on a bundle for the experience.
Ballydoyle riding arrangements in the Three Rock Maiden are confusing, with Seamus Heffernan aboard arguably the form horse, King Of Westphalia, and Kieren Fallon on newcomer Vivaldi.
King Of Westphalia gets the vote, having been given a kind introduction, by Heffernan, on his debut when fifth to Saoirse Abu at the Curragh.
Feature event is the Group 3 Ballycorus Stakes, but such events at this venue are notoriously difficult to solve.
A case of sorts can be made for the ten possibilities and, indeed, you could find fault with them all as well.
Modeeroch, grabbed late when third to Cheyenne Star and Heaven Sent in another Group 3 at the Curragh, should at least beat most of them!
