Honoria can make most of drop in class
The daughter of Sadler’s Wells was pitched in at the deep end on her debut in a Listed event at Limerick last month, running with a lot of promise to finish a close fourth behind Dress Rehearsal.
She then took fourth behind Superius in a Curragh maiden, when ten furlongs appeared all too short for her.
Honoria was back in Listed company when third to Raydiya at Roscommon and was then, rather ambitiously, allowed take her chance in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh.
She was never going to be involved at the business end, but wasn’t disgraced either in taking ninth of 14 behind two other Ballydoyle inmates, Moonstone and Ice Queen.
Onced-raced John Oxx-trained Rayina, who ran with a lot of promise when third to Dress Rehearsal in a Naas maiden, rates the obvious danger.
Ted and Ruby Walsh can combine with Collingwood to win the www.wexfordracecourse Maiden Hurdle.
There is no doubt he is a largely frustrating sort, but performed well enough when fourth to Caravino in a handicap at Tipperary last Sunday to think him capable of going close now.
Eyeffess has 12lbs in hand of Collingwood at the weights, but has been most disappointing of late.
Carlesimo, who won a similar contest in smooth style over this course and distance two weeks ago, again has to be the choice in the Blackstairs Claiming Race.
