Found was beaten less than a length in the Moyglare at the Curragh last time with Malabar back in fourth. The Ballydoyle filly looks sure to go close on that evidence and Ervedya looks a threat for the home team stepping up in trip after finding The Wow Signal too good in the Prix Morny at Deauville. But SHAHAH may prove better value as she's been brought steadily along by French maestro Andre Fabre. Beaten in three maidens, she won a Group 3 at Chantilly last month with plenty to spare beating Night Of Light and Thank You Bye Bye in the process. Stablemate Pink Rose is another likely improver and the progressive Jack Naylor can also figure for Ireland.
