ALBULA made a winning debut when scoring over today’s trip at Naas. The re-opposing Magical Lagoon was over three lengths behind and Joseph O’Brien’s filly will most likely prove competitive at this level. She's Trouble won her latest start though that was over 6f in soft going here back in May and cheekpieces are fitted on her reappearance. Aidan O’Brien has won two of the last three renewals with Kiss You Later a likely improver after last month’s moderate debut effort over 7f here and the latter is preferred to stablemate Lullaby.
