COMHRA is the form pick on her second to the unbeaten Meditate in a Naas Group 3 and can make her allowance count against more unexposed types. The winner's yard, who won this with Luxembourg a year ago, have Greenland entered and he'll improve a bundle for his run at the Curragh. Papilio finished just in front of the selection in the Group 2 Airlie Stud Stakes at the Curragh though Jim Bolger's filly was eased right down in the closing stages.
