Four White Socks²⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: K J Manning| T: H Fry| OR: 97

20/1

Interesting placing here for the first run for her new stable. A winner over 1m1f for previous yard. Pedigree suggests she will stay this trip and interesting if ready to go on her seasonal debut.

Form: 21530-

Jaega^v1³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld| OR: 96

8/1

First time visor. Trip and ground will suit. Stable has been in great form this season. Only beaten ¾L over 1m6f last time out in Listed company.

Form: 2594-52

(2)

Moteo²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: R P Whelan| T: J M Oxx| OR: 93

16/1

First attempt at 1m4f here. Pedigree doesn't scream stamina but she stayed on well over 1m2f last time out in handicap company. A lot to find on previous form with Who's Steph.

Form: 138-24

(4)

Tipitena³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 86| D

16/1

Trip will pose no problem, winner at Roscommon last time out. The worry would be that Listed company was too hot for her at Gowran on her penultimate start. Improvement needed to play a part in this Group 3 contest.

Form: 44-71

(6)

Who's Steph³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: C T Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 108| BF

1/1

Holds a Group 1 entry for the end of the month and sets the standard here. Step up to 1m4f poses no problem. A very likeable genuine daughter of Zoffany.

Form: 172-212

(7)

Chablis²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: W M Lordan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 93

10/1

Yet to see the best of this 1,550,000gns yearling purchase. Future looks to be over this sort of trip. Gets the three-year-old allowance.

Form: 1-054

(5)

Peach Tree¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: J A Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 102

3/1

Finished close up in the mix with Who's Step at Naas. Briefly led the Oaks field at Epsom 3f out before weakening. Full sister to 1m4f winner Flattering. Dangerous with the three-year-old allowance.

Form: 8201-40

Forecasts

Who's Steph (1/1), Peach Tree (3/1), Jaega (8/1), Chablis (10/1), Moteo (16/1), Tipitena (16/1), Four White Socks (20/1)

Who's Steph is a very genuine filly who ought to give her running again but the three-year-old allowance for PEACH TREE can not be ignored. Four White Socks is an intriguing entry here and can feature in the shake up if ready to go on her return.
