This looks a very weak maiden and Pont Aven, who hasn't really distinguished himself in his three runs to date though improved a little at Naas, will probably start a short-priced favourite due to connections. However, FUR ELISE is the form pick on her close fifth behind Halsafari at Fairyhouse and a big run from Retribution, who finished just in front of her that day, in today's opener will enhance her claims. Keep Standing ran much better than a 100/1 chance on his hurdling bow at Tramore but has been beaten a distance in both subsequent starts while Eclat Du Large has also shown very little.
