Duchessofflorence has only found one too good at Fairyhouse and Navan in her last two runs and sets the standard in this. But she lacks the scope of a number of her rivals including Ballydoyle's LOVED. By Galileo and the first foal of a dam who won a Listed race as a four-year-old, she looks the yard's first string as she still has an entry in the Irish Oaks and is sure to improve on her run in a Group 3 at Naas behind subsequent Irish Guineas heroine Pleascach. Marie Celeste could well reverse Fairyhouse running with Duchessofflorence with that run under her belt while the Teofilo filly Faseeha is worth a market check.
