YULONG GOLD FAIRY won a maiden here in good style last year and though she hasn't quite progressed as expected this campaign her second in a Leopardstown Group 3 and a decent run in the Irish 1000 Guineas would probably be good enough. The stable also run Sorelle Delle Rose, a handicap winner at Gowran but well beaten in a Group 3 subsequently. Aidan O'Brien has three entries with Hence possibly the pick as she was only beaten a neck at this level at Killarney last month with Panstarr a close third. Broadway ran much better than expected behind Magical in a Group 2 at the Curragh last time and a similar effort would see her in contention here.
