Previews: The premium will be on speed at Naas this afternoon and that should be ideal for the flying filly Ulfah in the Sprint Stakes.
Kevin Prendergast's daughter of Danzig returns to the track where she broke her maiden over six furlongs last October, but this time she is up against Listed company and older horses.
Three-year-old fillies usually have it tough against their elders at this time of year, but Ulfah could be an exception.
Even though she won her maiden by over four lengths, it still looked as if the performance would have been even more impressive at the minimum distance.
Prendergast tried to stretch her speed out to seven furlongs in Leopardstown's Guineas Trial and, significantly, there was plenty of market support for her on the course.
That didn't work out, but the Prendergast string was in a lull at the time, something that appears to have changed, and the trip was all wrong.
Today's bank holiday opposition includes the 104-rated Osterhase and the sole cross-sea raider, Benbaun, who won at Thirsk last time.
The Navan winner Symboli West is the dark horse, while Jamie Spencer is on Prince Monalulu. But they all may have to strain to follow Ulfah.
The other Listed race is the Swordlestown Stud Sprint for two-year-old fillies, and the raider here is Umniya from the Mick Channon yard.
This one is a Redcar winner, but it will be disappointing if one of the home runners can't cope with her.
Pictavia will have her supporters, but she drops back from seven furlongs and looked to need the distance at Leopardstown.
The Wachman yard has two in the race and Damson, who won at Cork, looks a type that is open to improvement.
Eddie Lynam is another trainer who has given signs of returning to winning form and he has half the field in the four-runner last. That they include the Moyglare runner-up Red Feather should be enough.
Aidan O'Brien has the Sadlers Wells newcomer Rio de Janeiro in the 10-furlong maiden, while the John Oxx yard has the Rahy filly Cayetana's Raid.
Both will have to be smart, however, to cope with Floscula, who was a running-on third on her only start of the season at Tipperary but should be much more suited by this fast going.
The best bet of the day at Tralee looks to be in the last, where Noel Meade gives the Punchestown runner-up Grangetown a second start in the bumper.
Normal improvement from his two-length second to Rogues Gallery should see this one with a major chance.
Ruby Walsh looks a significant booking for Red Square Lady in the mares maiden hurdle. Barry Geraghty's presence on Smoking Barrels in the second handicap hurdle can swing things his way.
