Race preview
ANGELS DAWN was predictably outclassed in a Grade 1 at Naas last month, but a reproduction of her previous third in a Grade 2 at Limerick would make her hard to beat. She has plenty of experience, stays well and handles testing ground. Eyre Square has to give 8lb to the selection but ran well after an eight-month layoff when fourth at this venue in January and should be fitter for that outing. Emily Roebling and Our Miss Power are closely matched on their running at Limerick over Christmas and both have place claims. Lady Rita, a fair third behind geldings at Fairyhouse, is going the right way and is another who has a chance of reaching the frame.
