Aidan O’Brien has sent out seven of the last 10 winners and PEACH TREE (NAP) has leading claims on these terms. She has to be forgiven a poor effort in the May Hill at Doncaster but a earlier second to Just Wonderful in a Group 3 at the Curragh is the best form on offer. Stable companions Credenza and Coral Beach have won a handicap and maiden race respectively while Accordance finished in front of the selection at Doncaster but failed to convince she stays this far. Mark Johnston’s filly was a runner-up in the Prestige Stakes over 7f at Goodwood earlier while both Chocolate Music and Fancy Feat step up in trip today for Jessica Harrington. Tarnawa and Elleanthus have something to prove at this level while Jim Bolger throws Laethanta Saoire in at the deep-end on her racecourse debut.
