Duke Of Leggagh¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: W Joyce⁽⁷⁾| T: M Mulvany

100/1

Twice-raced colt. 25/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 16 days ago. Looks to be being brought along gradually so others preferred.

Form: 87

(8)

Gaelic Nation²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: T P Madden| T: Mrs J Harrington

33/1

Looked badly in need of the experience when eighth of 15 in maiden at Roscommon (7.2f, good to soft, 10/1) on debut 20 days ago, missing break. Should have more to offer in time.

Form: 8

(10)

Malbay Madness⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D E Sheehy⁽³⁾| T: E Linehan

150/1

Well held in pair of maiden in recent weeks. Tough to see him involved.

Form: 00

My Beautiful Boy

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: N M Crosse⁽³⁾| T: H Rogers

50/1

Foaled March 5. Alhebayeb gelding. Half-brother to 1½m winner Arcland. Dam twice-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m (stayed 1½m) Eleanora Duse.

(7)

News At Ten¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L F Roche| T: M O'Callaghan

10/1

Promising type. Showed plenty of ability when third of 5 in minor event (12/1) at the Curragh (6f, good) on debut 11 days ago. Should progress.

Form: 3

(9)

Pivotal Trigger

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: S Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

20/1

Foaled March 25. 62,000 gns yearling, Pivotal colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 1½m Cabaletta and useful 1¾m winner Baihas. Dam 1½m-16.4f winner who stayed 2½m.

Sierra Blanca²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: W M Lordan| T: A P O'Brien

11/8

Quickly beaten when the tempo lifted when last of 3 in minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 7/2) on debut 29 days ago. Will surely do better.

Form: 3

(1)

Zezul^t⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: E J McNamara| T: Paul Gammell

125/1

Tongue strap on, could hardly have shown any less when thirteenth of 14 in maiden at Listowel (6.3f, good, 40/1) on debut 8 days ago, very slowly away.

Form: 0

(4)

La Dolce Vita²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: G M Ryan| T: Donnacha O'Brien

3/1

Twice-raced filly. 16/1, 4 lengths sixth of 7 to Meditate in Fillies' Sprint Stakes at Naas (5.9f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago. Strong claims here if able to build on that.

Form: 36

(3)

Zoinnocent²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: S M Crosse| T: J P O'Brien

15/8

€210,000 yearling, Zoffany filly who was given a considerate introduction when sixth of 13 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 18/1) on debut 3 weeks ago, running on late. Expected to know a lot more here and should make considerable progress.

Form: 6

Forecasts

Sierra Blanca (11/8), Zoinnocent (15/8), La Dolce Vita (3/1), News At Ten (10/1), Pivotal Trigger (20/1), Gaelic Nation (33/1), My Beautiful Boy (50/1), Duke Of Leggagh (100/1), Zezul (125/1), Malbay Madness (150/1)

This can go the way of LA DOLCE VITA, who was wasn't beaten far in a Group 3 on just her second start at Naas 4 weeks ago and a repeat of that effort back in maiden company should be enough for Donnacha O'Brien's filly to open her account. Zoinnocent is fancied to take a significant step forward from her debut effort so she's feared most, ahead of News At Ten, who showed plenty first time up when third at the Curragh earlier this month.
