With her yard going well and Finny Maguire booked, China Princess should improve from a promising run in tough company at Limerick. Lisa O'Neill has been booked for HOPHORNBEAM, who just failed to hold off the well-supported Domitian, ridden by her, at Clonmel and compensation awaits. Lets Go Again ran very well behind short-priced favourite Savina at Tramore but was receiving a stone. She looks certain to improve while Snegurochka caught the eye with a strong finish at Punchestown and is another certain to have come on for the run.
