Sun Queen hasn't beaten a single rival in her two races since scoring at Dundalk though her last start was in a Group 3. SIMLA SUNSET has been running well in tough handicaps over a mile and this shorter trip can enable her to return to winning ways. Tarrsille ran his best race for a long time at Naas last time when leading for much of the way. He's on the short-list along with He's Got Rhythm though the latter may just be a few pounds high at present. Solent Ridge found 1m1f stretching his stamina at Cork on Sunday and his form over today's trip suggests he will be thereabouts.
