MONT BLANC should take this as she showed the benefit of her opening run when when a good fourth in a maiden on very testing ground at Tipperary last month and improved when attempting to make all at Galway where she was only caught close home. Luangwa Lady was around 10l behind in that latter event and is very unlikely to reverse the form while Sabaidee was virtually tailed off on her debut over 7f at Cork and takes a huge step-up in trip. Una Veintena will have been bought for jumping but anything the champion jumps trainer saddles on the Flat is worth noting.
Luangwa Lady (IRE) 22-1 (9-0) Towards rear for most, never a factor, 5th of 6, 11l behind Aegean Sky (9-0) at Galway 1m 4f fll mdn stks sft.
Mont Blanc 8-1 (9-0) Led, disputed after 4f, headed after 5f, ridden to lead again 2 1/2f out, strongly pressed entering straight, kept on, headed close home, 3rd of 6, 3/4l behind Aegean Sky (9-0) at Galway 1m 4f fll mdn stks sft.
Sabaidee (IRE) 20-1 (8-9) Slowly into stride, towards rear, no impression straight, 10th of 15, 26l behind Punch Your Weight (9-5) at Cork 7f mdn stks.
Una Veintena (IRE) Shantou filly out of Killiney Treasure.
