Irish Stallion Farms EBF Vintage Tipple Stakes (Fillies' And Mares' Listed)
1m 6f
Going: Yielding (Soft in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneSix who lined up in the Noblesse Stakes at Cork last month reoppose here. FLOR DE LA LUNA fared best by finishing second and she might be able to uphold the form now, despite the fact this race is over two furlongs further. The daughter of Sea The Moon ran a cracker in Cork on what was just her third career start, going down by a length and a quarter. She would have finished even closer only for drifting left under pressure in the closing stages. The selection is one of two Jessica Harrington-trained runners in the field and it's significant that Shane Foley has sided with the Kirsten Rausing-owned bay over Barrington Court. Tom Madden rides Barrington Court and she warrants the utmost respect after winning two Listed races at Naas towards the end of last season. The much-hyped Princess Zoe disappointed on her return to action at Cork but an improved performance can be expected from her now. Mighty Blue would not have been out of place in Grade 1s over hurdles at Fairyhouse and Punches
