Domestic race action makes a welcome return to Naas on Thursday evening with a six-race programme beginning at 6.30pm. Aidan O'Brien has taken Royal Ascot by storm this week and the Ballydoyle handler can take the first division of the 6f maiden with Kimberley Mine. He wasn't disgraced on his debut over 6f at the Curragh last month when filling third place behind the useful Pakhoes, which subsequently filled finished runner-up in the Coventry, and he can score here.
One Nice Cat can complete a Ballydoyle double in the second division of the 6f maiden and atone for a very costly debut defeat. He was a very warm order to open his account at Gowran but was collared by New Currency much to the dismay of favourite backers.
John Oxx has a very strong three-year-old team this term and the Curragh handler looks to hold the key to both divisions of the concluding 1m fillies maiden with Lady O'Reilly's newcomer Kenyane and Fairyhouse runner-up Mariyba.
