Race preview
HAYYEL runs this track particularly well which bodes well for her prospects coming off a break since May. She has a win and two runner-up spots in Foxrock and, indeed, was a fair second over a mile and a quarter here in May. Seamie Heffernan has been booked again. Each way is probably the best play as the draw hasn't been kind. Fil The Power's fourth in Galway can be upgraded as he was hampered and suffered a less than clear route. Oneiroi has been placed in his last four races and should go well again. Always Waitin ran a good race off the front in a small field at the Curragh before being headed close home. Big Island, Himalayan Beauty, Emphatic and Supreme Machine are others to consider.
