Verdict

Hunaina stayed on strongly to chase home Noivado at Fairyhouse a week ago though Velveteen looks best of those with experience as she looked very green over 5f at Naas in April where she attracted strong support. David Wachman introduced a very smart newcomer in Intern at Leopardstown on Thursday and has a trio of entries here with jockey bookings suggesting the Coolmore-owned 440,000gns yearling Alphabet may be the best of them at this stage. KEY TO MY HEART cost 1.3m guineas and is by Galileo out of a USA Grade 1 winner. Ryan Moore is on board and his mount is taken to make a successful debut though there are numerous likely dangers including her stable companion Hydrangea, another daughter of Galileo and a full-sister to a Grade 1 winner in Australia.
