Silly Dancer is usually thereabouts but gets little respite from the handicapper as a result and has been put up 3lb after a couple of solid efforts over an extra furlong here earlier in the month. Footprint made a satisfactory reappearance at Dundalk in April but hasn't raced since, while Curragh third Copper Dock is better over 6f. Funatfuntasia appears to be running into form and could be interesting, however, though preference is for BEAUTHEA. Joanna Morgan's mare has finished behind a couple of today's rivals in her two runs so far this term but she should be approaching peak fitness now and is back on the same mark as when dead-heating on similar ground at Tipperary last August.
