Dual winner Chrysalism looked a bit high in the weights when beaten 5l in a Thurles nursery while In The Present was beaten when odds-on for a Fairyhouse maiden and makes her handicap debut. Azila couldn't get close to Even So at Gowran but that looked a good run and she can make a bold bid to go one better. Feminista looked as though she needed further than a mile when sixth in a nursery here last week but FLOWER GARLAND looks a nursery type having had the regulation three runs in maidens and starts out on what could prove a lenient mark.
