Easy Down Royal winner Dancila was engaged in the 8.28 here on Friday. AINGEAL DORCHA looked ideally suited by this sort of trip at Limerick and though 6lb higher is progressive enough to complete a double. Dame Rapide went up 9lb for an easy victory at Leopardstown and has another 13lb extra after cruising home over 1m6f here. She’s an obvious danger while Hms Seahorse has been in fine form over hurdles and reverts to the Flat on what looks a tempting mark. Effernock Fizz was the surprise winner of this last year but has had sixteen subsequent runs on the Flat and over timber without winning. Massaman performed with credit on his first start over this trip at Cork last time.
