Race preview
ROYAL EAGLE has been a good servant under both codes and gained a sixth career win on the Flat at Ballinrobe last summer. The Gordon Elliott-trained mare subsequently filled the runner-up spot twice in Listed hurdles and should benefit from her reappearance at Killarney. Maughreen impressed on debut in a Punchestown bumper and again landed short odds with switched to hurdles at the same venue earlier this year. She only weakened before the last in a Grade 1 at the Fairyhouse Easter meeting and this represents a drop in class. Jane Eire won a Cork maiden in good style last November but has had her limitations exposed since.
