Queen Alphabet came from way off the pace to win at Roscommon earlier this month and is probably open to further improvement. But PINK HAT is likely to start a short price for this having made a winning start to her career at Kilbeggan, where she appeared to have any amount in hand. Keith's Delight was well beaten here last month after winning at Downpatrick but Angel Chorus showed promise at Limerick and Naas before finding the company too hot at Punchestown in April and David Wachman has an interesting newcomer in the shape of Fair Funny, who is by King's Theatre and is a half-sister to a couple of winning jumpers.
