Naas Race 1 - Royal Ascot Trials At Naas Rated Race
ACCREDITED (1) represents notable connections and a leading yard. Improved from finishing fourth on debut to win a 1400m maiden at this venue during March. Could gain a double. LATIN AMERICA (2) is yet to finish outside the top-two with a runner-up effort making first career appearance at The Curragh preceding a 2.25L victory contesting a 2000m maiden at Navan. Drops in trip and is expected to challenge. SHAFTESBURY AVENUE (5) represents a leading jockey and trainer combination. Won by 1.75L shedding the maiden tag on latest outing at Navan. Will be thereabouts. PORT FERDINAND (3) cannot be discounted being a stablemate to the top and third picks.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming won by 0.8 len at Gowran Park April 8 over 1408m on a soft track defeating Jamestown carrying 61kg at $4.50.
