Verdict

FAIYUM won this by 7 lengths last year and will take plenty of beating if building on her second in a similar event at the Curragh 3 weeks ago. Star Performer impressed over C&D last time and rates the main danger, with further progress expected, while Sindria goes well here and can also be involved at her best.

2	Most progressive last year, winning 3 of her 4 starts, including this race by 7 lengths. Not as good this year but took a step back in right direction when chasing home a progressive 3-y-o in Group 3 Snow Fairy at the Curragh (9f) 3 weeks ago. Will be hard to beat if giving her running. 1st Pick 2 Faiyum Jockey: G. F. Carroll Trainer: G. M. Lyons, Ireland J: G. F. Carroll T: G. M. Lyons, Ireland	100	-	-	-	42%

5	Impressive winner of a 1m handicap here in April before following up in C&D listed race in May. Has found life tougher since but ran creditably when 4¼ lengths third to Miss Scott in Snow Fairy Fillies Stakes at the Curragh last time. Will benefit from return to this track and must be respected. 3rd Pick 5 Sindria (Ire) Jockey: J. M. Sheridan Trainer: Joseph Patrick O'brien, Ireland J: J. M.
