Red Viburnum²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: C D Hayes| T: D K Weld| BF

9/1

Highly promising Frankel filly who shaped really well when third of 11 in minor event over C&D (9/4) on her debut 29 days ago, closing all way to line having run green. Open to significant improvement for last year's winning yard.

She's Quality¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R P Whelan| T: J Davison| OR: 96

33/1

Fairly useful filly who readily landed the odds in 16-runner maiden at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago. This is much tougher but she's no forlorn hope.

Vespertilio²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery| OR: 110| CD

(4)

Ylang Ylang⁴⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: A P O'Brien| OR: 106| CD

6/5

Highly promising Frankel filly who has made all in C&D maiden and Silver Flash Stakes at Leopardstown (7f, by 1½ lengths from Vespertilio) this summer. Capable of a fair bit better still. Big shout.

Form: 11

Forecasts

Ylang Ylang (6/5), Vespertilio (4/1), Fallen Angel (9/2), Porta Fortuna (17/2), Red Viburnum (9/1), Ornellaia (20/1), She's Quality (33/1), Brilliant (33/1), Pearls And Rubies (40/1)

Aidan O'Brien's 1.5 million Frankel filly YLANG YLANG has created an excellent impression in going 2-2 thus far and is fancied to take this step up in class in her stride in a fascinating Moyglare Stud. Albany victor Porta Fortuna should find this step up to 7f to her benefit and is next on the list ahead of the unexposed Red Viburnum and Sweet Solero heroine Fallen Angel.
