This shouldn't take too much winning and looks just the type of race for CORAL BEACH to finally get her head in front. She's been hugely disappointing so far and has been a beaten favourite six times but ran well enough from a poor draw at Dundalk last time when Vivacious Spirit was behind. Frosty Beach ran better than her form figure implies in a big field at the Curragh and wouldn't need much more to get into contention while Hummingbird has been given a break since a promising run over the minimum at Navan in May. Sokudo has a speedy pedigree and may prove best of the newcomers.
