14:15, Curragh - Thatch to raise the roof

Edward Thatch looks well capable of making his mark upped in class in the Group 3 Kilkea Castle Marble Hill Stakes over six furlongs at the Curragh on Sunday.

Robson De Aguiar's horse learnt plenty from his debut and raced more efficiently when improving markedly on his second run to win by over five lengths.

That sets a good standard here and the Blackbeard colt is 5lb clear on Timeform ratings, making him a betting proposition against likely favourite Great Barrier Reef.


14:45, Curragh - Prevalence looks made to measure

Ger Lyons' Prevalence caught the eye in third on her handicap debut last time out and she can exploit a lenient-looking mark in the BYD At Finlay Motor Group Spring Fillies Handicap.

The daughter of Dark Angel took a strong hold on her seasonal reappearance before being outpaced at a crucial point but she picked her way through for third in the final furlong like a filly that can go close here.

A half-sister to 1m winner Previse, she should relish the extra furlong on her first go at a mile and as Timeform top-rated on 101p she rates the best bet on the card.


15:20, Curragh - Jancis to pounce in Lanwades

Finally, Jancis can back up her Dahlia Stakes victory at Newmarket last time in the Group 2 Lanwades Stud Stakes.

Willie McCreery's filly had the race run to suit over nine furlongs at Newmarket but the forecast pace is strong over a mile here and that should also play into her hands at this stiff track.

That wasn't the case in this race last year when she was only fifth, but this time around she comes in here in much better form with a much better set up anticipated.
