Sunday's feature in Ireland is the Group Three Kerry Group Noblesse Stakes in Cork and on the prevailing fast ground it looks a good opportunity for the Dermot Weld-trained Dancing Sky.

Weld had been considering a trip to Italy this weekend for the Italian Oaks with this filly but this looks a good chance for a valuable victory closer to home.

There should be more to come from Dancing Sky who narrowly beat Tamazug on her first start of 2006 at Navan where both Sina Cova and Brian Boru's sister Kushnarenkovo were behind. Crucially Weld's hope likes quick conditions and the same cannot be said for definite about the likes of the French Group Three winner Perfect Hedge or John Oxx's other runner Allexina.

Drumin Orpen has shown plenty of speed in two wins at seven furlongs and shouldn't be inconvenienced by the drop back in trip for the six-furlong handicap.

Howya Now Kid has shown plenty of natural pace in his three starts to date and can reverse Fairyhouse form with Varsity Blues in the Rochestown Stakes.

The Tramore bumper winner John Bob looks the one to get punters off to a good start in the first race at Fairyhouse tomorrow.
