With an official rating of 95, ACHNAHA should be opening her account. She found only a Dermot Weld favourite too good at Limerick last week. Upper Silesian came up against the useful Ebeyina on her return and makes more appeal than stablemate Beyond Intensity, while Crafted Mastery was beaten only a length at Dundalk in December. Blameless and Rayna are newcomers to keep an eye on in the betting.
