Katie Walsh was on board Approbare when her father's charge finished runner-up at Laytown and her mount was placed on his only start on this track. Helvic was a disappointment at Naas last time but didn't run badly on this surface earlier this year while Windsorlot's best run to date was over this trip at Tipperary. MATRIARCH was running better than her form figures implied during the summer and has produced good runs on her last two starts at Bellewstown and over a mile here last time. She's already had a dozen starts but looks ready to lose her maiden tag. Set To Fire could provide the main threat as Johnny Murtagh's filly produced easily her best run to date when narrowly beaten over the track and trip in March.
