Verdict: The experience of having contested a Group 3 race is an asset for La Fogata. However, LOOKINGFORARAINBOW looks the part with her pleasing Curragh debut advertised by the winner Diamond Necklace at Leopardstown last Saturday. White Sand Beach, whose dam Alice Springs won three Group 1s, is an obvious danger. [Alan Sweetman]

Verdict: Jessica Harrington's runner RESURGENCE can build on a debut second at the Curragh, form boosted by the third winning at Gowran. Port Of Spain has two runs under his belt and can make his presence felt, along with Mid Flight, a newcomer by Frankel. [Alan Sweetman]

Verdict: A Group 2 winner on soft in France at three, BIRTHE should be too strong for these rivals if retaining her ability and enthusiasm. She is dropped in class after making her Irish debut in smart company. If she fails to deliver, Coeur D'Or and Barbizon may be left to battle it out. [Alan Sweetman

Verdict: Several with similar sorts of chances but perhaps there may be more improvement in the twice-raced TAKE ME, who finished off his race nicely in a stronger Leopardstown maiden last time. Lady Lilac, Edge Of Seventeen, Snapretend and Sunlight Dance all have claims of sorts. [Alan Hewison]

Verdict: Having bounced back to form by beating higher-rated rivals in a maiden at Clonmel IT'S ALL PEACHY (nap) get the vote to defy a 7lb penalty. The maiden Adrienne might not be far away off a reduced mark. French import Ardeur might be well enough treated. Thrifty Of Digby and Electric Beauty have recent winning form. [Alan Sweetman]

Verdict: Not great strength in depth in this low-grade handicap and perhaps a good opportunity for last week's Clonmel second WARAZAM to gain a belated first win, her chance aided by her rider's 7lb claim. Place claims are held by the likes of Sottsands, Roderick and the now well-handicapped Fleetfootsoldier. [Alan Hewison]
