50/1

Footstepsinthesand colt, cost £39,000 as a Breeze-Up purchase. Dam related to a juvenile winner over 6f. Hard to fancy after showing very little on debut at Fairyhouse.

Great Grey²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Chris Hayes| T: L Comer

25/1

Famous Name colt, dam a half-sister to a US Grade 2 winner. Showed very little on debut when pushed along early and a big step forward needed here.

Form: 5

Bercasa

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S Foley| T: T Mullins

20/1

Casemento filly, cost €3,000 as a yearling. Half-sister to an Italian winner and dam a half-sister to a Listed winner. May need further than this to be seen to best effect.

Colour Me In

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Gary Carroll| T: T Mullins

20/1

Zoffany filly, dam a half-sister to five winning sprinters including a Listed winner. Market likely to reveal expectations on debut.

Her Approval²³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: N G McCullagh| T: T Mullins

14/1

Approve filly, cost €2,000 as a yearling. Dam a half-sister to a Group 3 winner over 5f. Took a big step forward from debut when fourth at Dundalk last time but has been slowly away on each starts and needs to eradicate that habit to be of interest.

Form: 04-

Louve Island³⁰⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J A Heffernan| T: Edward P Mitchell

50/1

Requinto filly, who was a tough, high-class, sprint 2yo, won Flying Childers, out of top 2yo Damson. Showed very little when eased down on debut and may need more time.

Form: 8-

(7)

Madame Delavanti

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery

5/2

Zoffany filly, half-sister to three winners over further and dam a winner and half-sister to a German Group 1 winner. Yard can ready a newcomer and plenty to like on paper.

Proud And Elated²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 74

11/10

Good efforts when making the frame in a couple of maidens and not disgraced last time out despite the losing margin at Listowel. Should continue to progress.

Scarlet Seymour⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rory Cleary| T: L Comer

7/2

Improved from her debut to finish fourth at Leopardstown at a big price last time out. Not ruled out if building on that.

Forecasts

Proud And Elated (11/10), Madame Delavanti (5/2), Scarlet Seymour (7/2), Her Approval (14/1), Bercasa (20/1), Colour Me In (20/1), Great Grey (25/1), Louve Island (50/1), Dream Invader (50/1)

MADAME DELAVANTI makes plenty of appeal on paper and given the yard's record with newcomers, she's chanced to get her head in front here. Proud and Elated is more exposed than most but she's consistent at least and should be getting her head in front at some stage. Her Approval isn't one to rule out if she can break on terms with her rivals.
