Princess Yaiza looks banker material on tricky Leopardstown card

The opening fillies' maiden (1.55) is obviously filled with potential, and nobody has been bound for the poorhouse by siding with Jessica Harrington and Aidan O'Brien in races like this over the past week.

Their respective representatives here, Lady Anner and Satin And Silk, are automatic inclusions, and it is also worth putting in the Dermot Weld-trained filly Eldama, who has a host of Group-race entries later in the summer.

A surprisingly small field of ten go to post for the equivalent race for colts and geldings (2.30). The Paddy Twomey-trained Bolivar with Billy Lee on board might be worth chancing, as well as the Ballydoyle colt Napa Valley, who still holds an entry in Wednesday's Hampton Court Stakes at Royal Ascot.

The Listed Saval Beg Levmos Stakes (3.00) features a rematch between last year's first and second, Twilight Payment and Falcon Eight. On the face of it, those two look the most likely winners with the latter possibly making up for an unlucky defeat last year.

The 1m4f handicap (3.35) is a very difficult race to call and you could put a dozen in this leg and still not come up with the winner.

We shall narrow it down to seasonal debutante Aasleagh Fawn with trip and especially ground in her favour, Cliara who showed progressive form on the all-weather over the winter, and the very intriguing Rip Rocks Paddy Ok at the bottom of the handicap, who could be thrown in here on his hurdles mark.

The Listed Irish Stallion Farms EBF Noblesse Stakes (4.10) is not a particularly strong contest and probably gives us scope for a banker in the shape of the Gavin Cromwell-trained Princess Yaiza, who should be too good if she runs up to her mark.

The devilishly difficult 1m2f handicap (4.45) is the final obstacle, and we shall rely on Ballydoyle filly Holy Roman Empress, the unexposed Yulong Voice and the progressive Moll on her debut for Paddy Twomey.
