Four of these five ran in a 7f handicap at Naas a week ago with ZELANIYA coming out best in third with the remainder well beaten. Hansian Prince was fifth ahead of Elusive Beauty with Old Grace bringing up the rear. The difference in the weights is minimal and the selection will be suited by the extra furlong as she won a maiden over this trip at Gowran in October. Three Jacks won a Tipperary maiden in the same month before finding Listed company well beyond him at Leopardstown.
