Settings
Selected odds by:
Filly by Shantou out of a Bob Back mare. Cost €21,000 as a three-year-old. Sister to five winners, all hitting the target in bumpers. Beaten over 13L on debut at Limerick last month and more needed here.
Fame And Glory filly from family of useful bumper performer Senorita Rumbalita. No impression on debut in a Kilbeggan contest beaten over 50L when last seen in April.
Daughter of Roderic O'Connor out of a Kris Kin mare. Half-sister to two winners on the Flat, including staying winner, Andy Dandy. Market likely to reveal expectations on debut.
By Fame and Glory. Half-sister to hurdle/chase winner Gentleman Duke, Johannisberger, victorious over 2m-2m4f in hurdle/chase company and Rory's Valentine successful hurdler over 2m4f. Well held on debut and easy to look elsewhere again.
Daughter of Califet out of a Catcher In The Rye mare. Dam runner up in a point-to-point contest. One of two in the race for the yard and market possibly best guide.
Filly by Yeats out of a Posidonas mare. Sister to Largy Mountain who was placed in bumpers and point-to-point contests. One of two from the stable in this contest and worth a market check.
Daughter of Mustameet out of a Lend A Hand mare. Dam won at 2m over hurdles and over 7f/1m on the Flat. Worth a check in the market with the yard hitting the frame on five occasions from 10 runners since 2015.
Filly by Papal Bull out of a Hawk Wing mare. Sister to bumper and 1m6f to 2m Flat/2m4f hurdle winner One More Go. Promising second of 12 not beaten far on debut at Tramore earlier this month and no surprise to see her go close again.
Failed to build on a mildly promising third on maiden hurdle debut when finishing tailed off in a Tramore contest over timber last month. Best watched on bumper introduction.
Daughter of Stowaway out of a Milan mare. Dam won over hurdles at 2m. From the family of top staying chaser, Marlborough. Best watched on debut from a yard without a national hunt winner in Ireland since 2015.
Elusive Pimpernel filly out of a Dalakhani mare. Dam unraced half-sister to Listed placed 1m two-year-old winner, Rising Wind. Looks a long term prospect.
Daughter of Shirocco out of a Pistolet Bleu mare. Half-sister to 2m hurdle winner, Arian. Possibly best watched making racecourse debut here.
Forecasts
Snegurochka (11/4), Hophornbeam (3/1), Lets Go Again (9/2), Knoxter's Hill (7/1), Springsteen's Girl (8/1), China Princess (14/1), Fairytale Bliss (20/1), Ringhill Lady (25/1), Great Catch (25/1), Doonbeg Glory (25/1), Mary Ellis (25/1), Famous Escape (33/1)
The current form of the Di Love stable is a concern and ultimately a negative for the Yeats filly, Hophornbeam, who may have play second fiddle to the Philip Fenton-trained, LETS GO AGAIN. The daughter of Papal Bull showed plenty of promise on debut at Tramore earlier in the month and can land the prize at the expense of the Peter Fahey pair of China Princess and newcomer, Knoxter's Hill.
