Most of these have an official rating with Coralillo coming out best after a narrow defeat in a Curragh Group 3. She was found to be distressed post-race after a moderate run at Fairyhouse last week and may be worth watching for now. APRICOT TWIST (NAP) was only just behind in that Curragh Group 3 having led until headed close home and will take some catching. Congo River's neck defeat by the smart Beauty Crescent at Navan would see him in the firing-line but he only scrambled home here a fortnight ago. UK raiders have had great success in Ireland this season so Malrescia and Puffable should be noted along with the improving Silmaniya.
