Aidan O'Brien has won three of the last four but today's two entries Contarelli Chapel and West Coast have been struggling for form. Both were behind, along with Neptune Rock, in a similar race at Gowran last week though the former didn't get the best of runs. Show Of Stars was only headed close home after leading from the start in the latter event and today's shorter trip will suit while EMPHATIC ANSWER found 7f too sharp at Fairyhouse after missing the break and is best judged on her neck second in a Curragh Group 2 in May, form that would make her difficult to beat. Panama Red looked back to something like her juvenile form when headed right on the line in a similar race over the track and trip last month while Charterhouse found Group 3 company too hot to handle at Leopardstown after landing a handicap here.
