The Oaks trial at Naas looks a cracker tomorrow evening. We've got some fillies with a relative vast amount of experience and some only having their 2nd and 3rd runs of their racing lives. Butterflies tops the current market, racing for Aidan O'Brien but I think there are a couple in this that will prove too good for her here. She has had 9 runs with 1 win and narrowly lost out the last day, arguably her best run.

The pair I'd be focusing on both raced against each other lto, Black Ruby and Frima. Black Ruby won that contest by .75 of a length after a good ride, Frima (Frankel) closing all the way to the line. I think Pat Smullen will be wiser to the tactics and with Frima now more experienced, the finish can be testing at Naas and at the current 12/1 I have to back her here. I was on Black Ruby that day so likely could regret the change but there was something I saw from Frima that left me thinking she will reverse that form.

Now I just have to hope the rest aren't as good! Lovely race.

Frima is now a non runner due to heavy rain here all day, ground not in her favour. Pity, but she will have a day in the sun soon hopefully...if it decides to dry up for Summer!

I've no bet now but I hope Black Ruby can oblige. She's been supported heavily prior to the Frima withdrawal too, 9's into 11/2 and 5/1 since withdrawal. They are expecting a nice run by the market.

Threw half my bet back on Frima on Pirolo in the 8:20 @ 7/2 instead. Bolger runner who was punted lto at Down Royal but got blocked and forced wide and was perhaps an unlucky loser. Can make amends tonight on a fairer track.
 
An impressive performance by Key To My Heart. Aidan keeping a stranglehold of the race. Uncanny how often O'Briens meet on similar terms and the form is so sporadic, Key to My Heart and Butterflies the two in question from the race tonight. KTMH finished 3 lengths ahead of Butterflies 3 starts back. Butterflies finished over 8 lengths ahead 2 starts ago and KTMH beats Butterflies out of sight (albeit she was eased down) lengths tonight. Good luck trying to gauge the form there.

Talking of Peter Bowen he’s opted to give the 9YO Rolling Maul quite a career shift this eve by debuting him on the level at Bath in a 11.5 furlong maiden (8.30). Certainly ain’t tipping him, team, but it will be fascinating to see how this 9 time winner, in the NH sphere, fares on his Flat bow at such an advanced age.

Jungle Room was taken out of a race at Hamilton Park on Friday evening (Kevin Ryan runs an alternative in that heat). That York race looks incredibly hot, after the entry stage, and he would (providing Zap, Green Fortune and Folk Tale are declared) have to race against winners as it’s a novice affair rather than a maiden. You would have to think that Jungle Room must have been showing something, at home, to prompt even an entry in this race - especially from a stable not known for making silly entries.

I know you said you weren't tipping it but shout with Rolling Maul
