Verdict

PUNICA GRANATUM was unlucky not to beat the Sandringham winner at the Curragh in May and is taken to get back on track now reverting to maiden company for her all-weather debut. Emiza shaped well on debut and looks the chief threat, with further improvement on the cards, while the consistent Trek Home is also respected.

13	Looked unlucky not to win when a short-head second of 12 to Green Carrera in a premier handicap at the Curragh in May. That winner followed up in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and, while things haven't gone to plan since, she sets the standard in this company. 1st Pick 13 Punica Granatum (Ire) Jockey: Keithen Kennedy Trainer: Mrs J.

10	Blue Point filly who shaped better than the bare result 2¼ lengths fifth of 17 to Never The Same in maiden at Naas on debut 12 days ago. Wears first-time cheekpieces on all-weather debut and is one to consider with improvement very likely to be on the cards. 2nd Pick 10 Emiza (Fr) Jockey: P. A. Harnett Trainer: D. K.

8	Fairly useful maiden who has finished in the frame on all 5 starts, 2¾ lengths third of 13 to Finika at Cork on latest. Likely to be firmly in the mix for minor honours again. 3rd Pick 8 Trek Home (Ire) Jockey: T. Casey Trainer: Daniel James Murphy, Ireland J: T. Casey T: Daniel James Murphy, Ireland	93	-	-	-	29%
