Curragh Race 3 - BYD At Finlay Motor Group Spring Fillies Handicap
PREVALENCE (4) caught the eye when third just behind GREEN CARRERA (7) at this venue 20 days ago. Ger Lyons' filly was making her first outing of the campaign and handicap debut that day and finished off to real good effect. That effort suggested this step up to 1600m should be well within range and she's selected to reverse the form. The latter also looks sure to appreciate going back up in trip and must be respected off a 0.5kg higher mark. The well-bred Dubawi filly WHITE SAND BEACH (3) struggled in the G3 Athasi Stakes over course and distance recently but has the form to be involved now down in class on her handicap debut. STARS WILL SHINE (2) is interesting with Oisin Murphy booked.
