Dundalk Race 6 - Floodlit Fridays At Dundalk Stadium Maiden
NUIT (10) placed on sole AW run here this time last year. Beaten 8.75L tenth in the Beckford Stakes listed contest over 2816m at Bath attempting latest. This is far less demanding and finds an ideal opportunity to shed her maiden status. Top selection. Four-time hurdling winner DADDY LONG LEGS (1) has found the frame both career starts on the flat. Makes AW debut. Main danger competing first-up. SQUARE NECKER (5) is unraced since placing when debuting at Doncaster during March. Since switched to the Robson De Aguiar stable. Holds claims if there is a market lead. PADRE BAY (3) wears a visor on his first outing for Thomas Cleary. Might feature.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of seven months. Finished off last campaign third of 9 at Ballinrobe May 9 over 2615m, 9 len behind Carmers carrying 66.5kg at $1.70. First up last campaign second in a small field at Leopardstown in the G1 Irish Champion Hurdle February 2 over 3218m, soft track; 6 len behind State Man with 75.5kg at $41. Looks very hard to beat.
