Pimlico looks the ideal passport to Thursday win at Waterford

PIMLICO PRINCESS can double her career tally with victory in Waterford's A4 over 525 yards at 11.47.

Lester Power's bitch clocked her best-ever time in defeat in an A3 contest on 27th December so the drop in class looks generous.

There does not appear to be huge early pace in the race, certainly on the outside, and she is fancied to seize control of proceedings by the opening turn.

Other Waterford fancies are Derek Kehoe's Slaneyside Brett (12.04) and Dympna Corcoran's Jacktavern Bucks (1.47), while the best comes early at Thursday's other Irish meeting at Limerick in the shape of Joe Shanahan's Millroad Luna in the A7 opener at 3.03.

First meeting under way is Oxford where Rachel Hill's Cloughtaney Chaz (11.54) makes most appeal, while Christian Darch's Affleck Nashwan (4.07) and Colin Dibb's Crafty San Siro (7.42) can score at Valley and Star Pelaw respectively.
