DANCE ON BY had little chance in a Roscommon Listed race last week but her earlier form would be good enough for this. A full-sister to High Chapparal and Black Bear Island, she needs a victory for the paddocks and won't get many better chances. Gipsy Countess is arguably as well connected as the Ballydoyle filly being a half-sister to a Grade 1 winner in the USA. She should improve for her run behind Big Occasion over the C&D and rates a threat. Another blue-blooded entry, Edallora, tackles the trip for the first time and is certain to be suited as she's very closely related to Irish Oaks and Irish St Leger winner Ebadiyla and the Ascot Gold Cup winner Enzeli.
