You'd have expected her to go clear 2f out. I wonder was she stopped one time too many.
 
Anyone who saw Shebella win over 7f at Limerick on debut won't be surprised to see her stepped up in trip to 10f toninght in the Blue Wind Stakes at 7.20. I'm happy to take 7/2 that she's at least Group 3 level.

Caprella (6.20) had been expensive to follow in two starts in Dundalk this season but I'll give her another chance off of 80 at around 8/1.
 
After yesterday's excruitiating kicking I should take a break but I cannot leave what I believe to be a blinding EW bet alone.
Steely Grace goes in her first handicap off 68 tonight at Naas over 5f. She had the winner Royal Visit (fav for 6f h'cap later on card off 86), Sruchahan (subsequent cosy maiden winner in same race tonight as RV of 81) and Atacx subsequent cosy maiden winner cooked after 5F in a maiden at Naas last time out. She collapsed to 5th in the final furlong without being knocked about. I believe she is a monster EW bet at 8/1 from a middle draw. Charles O'Brien has used this race in the past to start off the like of Bewitched and Greek something or other who both ended up serious fillies and runs the unexposed Possible. If she wasn't in I would be recommending a straight win bet.
Steely Grace is inexperienced but has run at Naas in two of her three starts. I can see her having betrween 8 and 10lbs in hand.........sometimes though that may not be enough..
