STARTEDWITHAKISS dotted up in a Roscommon maiden, although she couldn't have won more easily. She's returned to handicap company now and a 5lb higher mark of 78 should still see her competitive as she could have plenty more to offer as a four-year-old with just five career starts on the board. Fascinating Shadow is having a fine time and has landed his last three starts - on Turf at Bath, on the all-weather at Dundalk and over timber at Cork. He makes any shortlist and is not ground dependent. Meritorious is interesting after a break with Magnetic North and Buckman Tavern, first and third at Navan in April, also in with a shout.
