Verdict

SIGNORA has returned with solid runner-up efforts at the Curragh/Cork in recent weeks and Aidan O'Brien's filly looks to hold solid claims of opening her account here. Heading up the dangers is the returning Ridersinthesky, with Rayzera and Expert Dancer another pair fancied to be in the shake up.

14	Pretty highly tried in 2 starts as a juvenile and resumed this spring with solid runner-up efforts at the Curragh/Cork over this trip. Shouldn't be long in going one place better on that evidence. 1st Pick 14 Signora (Ire) Jockey: Jack Cleary Trainer: Aidan O'brien, Ireland J: Jack Cleary T: Aidan O'brien, Ireland	100	-	-	-	67%
Analysis Pretty highly tried in 2 starts as a juvenile and resumed this spring with solid runner-up efforts at the Curragh/Cork over this trip. Shouldn't be long in going one place better on that evidence.
13	Made the frame first 3 starts as a juvenile, latterly when third in a Group 3 at the Curragh (1m) in August. Final start at Cork back in calmer waters has to go down as disappointing but she undoubtedly holds strong form claims if putting her best foot forward after 6 months off. 2nd Pick 13 Ridersinthesky (Ger) Jockey: N. M. Crosse Trainer: Mrs J. Harrington, Ireland J: N. M. Crosse T: Mrs J. Harrington, Ireland	79	-	-	-	15%

12	Promising sort who found a little more progress after 6 months off when second in a 7-runner Gowran maiden (7.8f) 17 days ago. Likely she can do better again for good yard. 3rd Pick 12 Rayzera (Ire) Jockey: Seamie Heffernan Trainer: John Patrick Murtagh, Ireland J: Seamie Heffernan T: John Patrick Murtagh, Ireland	90	-	-	-	13%
