Black Ace couldn't keep pace with Dr Mikey at Cork but the winner is well regarded and it will be a surprise if he's not in the frame. The runner-up that day is trained by Gordon Elliott who has Robin Des Mana engaged here and he's run well enough in better maidens than this so should also get competitive. Calino D'airy went for £150,000 after easily landing a point in May and will be better for his run at Fairyhouse earlier this month but the vote goes to TURBOJET. She's produced several fine performances, especially when runner-up to Bel Ami De Sivola over this track and trip last month, and her allowance can help her to her first victory.
