16/1
Gelded son of Paco Boy and a half-brother to useful Flat and jumps performer Charm School. 33/1 when hooded for a promising debut in a weaker race than this and should improve.

Age: 3|  Weight: 9-5| J: Chris Hayes| T: K Prendergast
25/1
Well beaten on both his career starts and not much promise at Navan last time out. Handicaps look like a more likely winning route.

Invincible Spirit colt, cost €750,000 as a yearling. Full-brother to a Group 2 winner amongst others. Very promising debut and likely to build on that for a yard in good form of late. Leading contender.

Well beaten on both her starts, still looked a little green at Cork last time. Others more likely.

Some promise on debut at Limerick but missed the break at Sligo last time and showed very little. Others preferred.

9/4
Invincible Spirit colt, cost €200,000 as a yearling. Full-brother to two winners and dam a Listed winner. Ran well at Dundalk on debut when runner-up and produced a similar effort when fourth of 14 at Navan last time. Each-way claims again.

Horse silk
50/1
Showed very little on both career starts and yard's runners are running a little below form in recent weeks. Ought to be capable of better at some stage. Handicaps may see him to better effect.

14/1
Mastercraftsman colt, dam a Listed winner over sprint trips. Well bred and makes some each-way appeal here.

Horse silk
20/1
Vocalised colt related to multiple winners and picked up for relatively small money. Looked more of a long term prospect at Killarney on debut earlier this month.

33/1
His half-sister Falafeena (also trained by Pat Flynn) was a speedy sort but there's also stamina on the dam's side. Too green on debut but likely to do better here.

66/1
Foxwedge colt cost connections 21,000 gns as a yearling. Has struggled on both his starts to date including when well beaten at Cork last time out when fifth of seven. Hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Mayaadeen (8/13), Rapture's Delight (9/4), Smart Craft (14/1), Descendant (16/1), Take A Nap (20/1), Manfadh (25/1), Whatharm (33/1), Signing Off (50/1), Mr Whoppit (50/1), Mooborak (66/1), Whispering Paddy (66/1)

16:45 Gowran Park - 29 May 2018 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

MAYAADEEN looks like the one they all have to beat in here and this expensive purchase ran well on debut. Descendant produced a promising debut back in March and is respected but Rapture's Delight could be the main danger and brings a useful level of form in to this.
  1. Mayaadeen
  2. Rapture's Delight
  3. Descendant
