IRISH PREVIEW
THE Group 3 Kerry Group Noblesse Stakes at Cork has attracted no less than four English-trained runners, including the John Dunlop pair Green Room and Wannabe Posh. Eddie Ahern takes the mount on Wannabe Posh who chased home Trick Or Treat at Haydock last time, with her stable-mate Green Room back in third.
High Heel Sneakers, from the Paul Cole stable, is another one likely to give a good account of herself under Kevin Manning. The daughter of Dansili has been running consistently well and was only beaten by three and a half lengths by Munsef at Goodwood on her latest. The filly is likely to be tested to the full by Athenian Way and Reform Act but still holds most appeal here.
The listed Kerry Spring Water Rochestown Stakes is an all-domestic affair in which Aidan O'Brien is represented by Observation Post who is expected to improve on his third placing behind Elletelle at Leopardstown.
However Pretty Ballerina, the more experienced of John Murphy's two fillies in the line-up, is preferred. The selection kept on well to finish fourth in the six furlong contest won by You'resothrilling at Naas and can take full of advantage of her 3lb sex allowance to gain a valuable winning bracket at the expense of May Meeting.
Racing also takes place at Fairyhouse where trainer Christy Roche can complete a double through Kadiskar in the Betchronicle. com On Course Hurdle and Cool Running in the Betchronicle. com @ The Sporting Emporium Chase. Kadiskar made an impressive return to action after an absence of more than seven months to win at Listowel and Cool Running has also impressed in winning his last two starts.
