Grey Streak^v1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S Foley| T: K J Condon| OR: 71

15/2

Fairly useful gelding. Remains a maiden after 10 runs but respectable third of 11 in maiden (7/2) at this course (5f) 12 days ago. Visor on now and not taken lightly.

200/1

Twice-raced gelding, only eighth of 11 in maiden (200/1) at this course (5f) 12 days ago. Big step forward is required.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C D Hayes| T: J A Stack| OR: 71

6/5

Progressive colt who posted excellent second of 14 in maiden over C&D (4/1) 33 days ago. Tongue strap on now and another bold showing is on the cards.

Zahee^h¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: G M Ryan| T: A McGuinness| OR: 79

4/1

Fairly useful gelding but arrives below par, too free when eighth of 14 in maiden at this course (7f) 14 days ago. Has good chance on best form but he needs to become more tractable.

250/1

Lightly-raced filly. 100/1, ninth of 12 in maiden at the Curragh (9f, heavy) 12 days ago. Significantly down in trip but hard to fancy.

40/1

Hooded and much better effort in 5f maidens when fifth of 13 at Naas 18 months ago. Fitness a big concern on her return now.

Forecasts

Stalingrad (6/5), Zahee (4/1), Ola Bonita (5/1), Quiet Place (11/2), Hazard (6/1), Grey Streak (15/2), Mutiny (8/1), Phantom Power (20/1), Iontach (22/1), Prima Vega (40/1), Clef De Voute (50/1), Kristall Eye (50/1), Maestro Stick (200/1), Okazoe (200/1), Minky (250/1), Hands Down (300/1), Catalinawinemixer (300/1)

STALINGRAD's form is on an upward curve so he is taken to build on his fine C&D second and open his account at the chief expense of Ola Bonita, who holds solid claims on the form of her recent second here. Grey Streak is another worth considering, especially if the fitting of a visor ekes out a bit more improvement.
