FormscanBy Donal Murphy - ORANDI had no luck in running when a never nearer third over the course and distance recently. Backed into favouritism on that occasion, the French import might be able to recoup losses now, with Colin Keane again on board. Connections of Mercurial have clearly been waiting for the ground to ease, with the five-year-old a non-runner three times due to the 'change in going' since his win on heavy at the Curragh in April. Still looking nicely treated on a mark of 74, the John Nallen-trained bay should give a good account of himself. Narrowly beaten into third at Gowran earlier this month, Bellaphina looks to have solid claims, while the evergreen Verhoyen, top-weight Vasda and dual winner Merisi Diamond are others to consider in this competitive heat.
An extended handicap for three years old and upwards (90 = 10st)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.

Quotes on Buttermere Ridge (IRE)
He's a big horse. Dave Hyland bred him and Caren Walsh is involved, she lost her husband a few months ago so it's a great tonic for her. David L'Estrange chose to go and see his horse in Tipperary today. I'm delighted for the three of them because he's taken a lot of time to come to hand, they've been very patient. I was giving him a run to see how he got on because he needed to get out, he's just a lazy bugger at home. It's great to get him started and we might look for a winners' race somewhere. He's a lovely horse and he'll like better ground, he just got away with it there.

Quotes on Verhoyen (GB)
The rain was needed. I was going to declare him again for Sunday, but I walked it this morning and it was only just good. With the dry forecast for the weekend I thought it wouldn't be slow enough for him on Sunday but there was enough for today. I'm delighted, with 10st2lb you couldn't be over confident in that type of handicap. He loves it here, he's a different horse when he's here — close to home. We'll see what the handicapper does now. There are a few 60-90 handicaps that he's probably not going to get into now. We'll have to go premier handicaps now, but he's not going to go to the likes of Galway as it doesn't seem to suit him. We'll maybe go to Britain and find a handicap for him over there.

Quotes on Desert Haven (GB)
Desert Haven was one of Paul Hunt's (previous owner) horses and he let him go at the end of the season so I bought him back myself. We did a little job on his wind which helped and he goes on any ground. It's great because his new owners had Knockmore Prince who nearly broke our hearts last year!. They wanted him to jump (hurdles) and he does actually jump so we'll see how we go during the summer. I don't know whether he'll get that trip or not though but it's great to start with a win for them.

Quotes on Bellaphina (IRE)
She was good the last day on ground she wouldn’t like. She was coming back after a lay-off as she had sore shins last summer as a two-year-old. We knew she would come on loads from the last day and were confident that she would put up a good performance. She quickened up well and Conor said he was there a little bit too soon but she’s good and tough. She has plenty of gears and I’m delighted for a small place like ours to get a winner here on Guineas weekend. We have 15 in training and she’s the best older horse. There is a couple of nice two-year-olds.

Quotes on Lexington Dash (FR)
I'm delighted. The lads threw a few quid together to try and buy a nice horse and they've got one,. He was still a colt when we bought him so we gelded him and it certainly hasn't done him any harm. He ran a lovely race first time out at the Curragh and he's come forward from that. He's going to be rated 100 after that so we have plenty of options, and we could maybe look at the seven furlong handicap on Champions Weekend.
