TrackLab Insight
One Look is the clear top-rated horse, 5 lbs clear of her nearest rivals, and this course is her favourite playground — three wins from six races at the Curragh, including over this exact distance, is a record none of her rivals can get close to. She finished second here just three weeks ago and arrives fit and familiar with every inch of this track. The one note of caution is that she has never won on fast, dry ground in three attempts, which is worth keeping in mind given today's conditions.

"She's a lovely filly and I was delighted with her at the Curragh. She only found Porta Fortuna too good there and the Duke of Cambridge has been pencilled in for her. She's smart. 13-06-25"

TrackLab Insight
With three wins from just five races, Dreamasar has the best win rate in this field by some distance — roughly 1 in every 2 races, which is remarkable at any level. She drops down two classes from the company she usually keeps, which on paper looks like a golden opportunity. The concern is her last run, where she finished fourth and beaten nearly four lengths at Newcastle, and her odds have drifted slightly suggesting punters aren't entirely convinced.

Trainer Quotes
Apr 2026
"She's a lightly raced filly from a family we know well, as a half-sister to Dreamloper, and has progressed encouragingly. I hope she can climb the ladder in handicaps before hunting black type. I think she'll stay 1m2f. 22-04-26"

TrackLab Insight
Nyra is the highest-rated horse in the field — 5 lbs clear of the favourite — and yet has never actually won a race in two outings, which makes her a fascinating puzzle. Like Moody, she has never raced on dry ground, a shared concern for both of the market's mid-range players today. Her odds have drifted significantly from 5.5 to 8.0, suggesting the market is growing cautious, and it's hard to argue against that with no wins on the board and untested ground conditions.

TrackLab Insight
Two races, two wins — Moody has a perfect record and is arguably the sharpest on recent form among the dangers to the favourite, with her last win coming at Gowran Park just over ten weeks ago. The big unknown is that she has never raced on dry ground before, which is a genuine question mark on today's fast conditions. She is lightly raced and there is clearly more to come, but how she handles the ground is the key unknown.

TrackLab Insight
Rhapsody is the lowest-rated runner in the field, rated 8 lbs below the field average, and faces a steep climb against this quality of opposition. Her last win came in much lower-grade company at York nearly a year ago, and she finished fourth at Ascot last time out, beaten over two lengths. The odds shortening from 15s to 9s is eye-catching and Ryan Moore is a top rider, but on ratings alone she has the most to prove here.

TrackLab Insight
This is a horse who has won at the very highest level before, including a Class 1 win at Newmarket, but her last two runs have been awful — beaten 12 and a half lengths at Ascot and 10 and a half at Newmarket. She arrives here needing to bounce back sharply, and the odds drifting inward slightly from 17s to 15s suggests a little quiet optimism, but the recent form makes it hard to get excited.

Subsonic has one notable thing in her favour that most rivals don't — she has actually won over this course and distance before, at the Curragh nearly ten months ago. However, her last two runs have been poor, including an eighth-place finish at Navan, and she has never won on dry ground in three attempts. At odds of 41.0, the market is treating that course win as a distant memory, and the current form makes it hard to argue otherwise.

With 17 races and just one win, Spicy Margarita is by far the most experienced horse in a field that averages eight races per runner — but experience hasn't translated into results. She has never won at the Curragh in six attempts here, and her odds drifting from 51s to 67s tells you the market has little faith today. Racing on dry ground for the first time adds another unknown to an already difficult profile.

How do odds work? The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
