Stage Lady attempted to make all in testing conditions at Limerick three weeks ago where she was headed around two furlongs out. She'll have come on massively for the outing while winning point-to-pointer Bop Bop Bobbin led in the straight at Leopardstown but could only stay on at one pace when headed. Whispering Pines made a very promising debut at Wexford back in May 2021 but hasn't raced since pulling up at Down Royal a month later and has changed yards. Gordon Elliott has two entries with Jamie Codd on board WHY DELILAH, who cost €150,000 as a three-year-old and is a half-sister to five winners so she can make a successful debut.
