Cleopatra's Needle
CLEOPATRA'S NEEDLE shaped as though she could be ready to strike on her latest Flat start and is narrowly preferred to Sarangpur, who finished a solid third at Gowran last time. Copper Craft is likely to be in the mix, too, providing he can translate his recent all-weather form to turf.

Much improved on just second start for current connections, finishing third of 14 in a handicap at Gowran, and makes plenty of appeal, with that form working out well.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosGowran Park1m 1f 130ySoftFlat3/14Navan7f 180yHeavyFlat8/15Leopardstown1m 1fHeavyFlat11/13Naas1mYieldingFlat13/16Punchestown1m 1f 58yGood to Yielding (Yielding in Places)Flat14/14- 4(3)She's IdealJ: J.

Small step in the right direction when fifth at Bellewstown last time.

Shaped as though on a handy mark when runner-up at Leopardstown (1m) last month.
