Raphello⁶⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Browne McMonagle| T: J P O'Brien

10/1

Finished third of 11 on C&D debut but made no progress when seventh of 13 back here 66 days ago, albeit making his effort on opposite flank to the principals. In good hands and likely capable of better still.

Form: 37

A La Dure

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: James Ryan| T: J Davison

16/1

Foaled February 21. 30,000 gns yearling. Zoustar colt. 30,000Y. Dam was a two-year-old sprint winner and half-sister to smart winner Repeater. Market can point the way on debut.

Profit Centre²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Ronan Whelan| T: K J Condon

15/2

Profitable colt who looked badly in need of experience when finishing ninth of 12 in maiden at Tipperary (50/1) 23 days ago, outpaced 2f out but made late headway. Type to do better but pedigree points to longer trips being more his bag moving forward.

Form: 9

(10)

Methodtomy Madness^b1

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Nathan Crosse| T: Daniel Murphy

22/1

Foaled February 26. €15,000 yearling. Bungle Inthejungle half-brother to 1½m winner Sugarpiehoneybunch. Dam, sister to high-class sprinter Borderlescott. Blinkered for debut and the betting can likely prove a useful guide.

Pints In Peace¹¹⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Ben Coen| T: Daniel McLoughlin

9/2

Once raced colt who finished of 6 in maiden at Curragh (7/2) 118 days ago, chased leaders and kept on without being unduly punished. Attracted support on debut and should improve for that experience.

Form: 4

(2)

Fair Of Emly

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: S Foley| T: P Twomey

9/4

Foaled March 28. €32,000 yearling. Acclamation filly. First foal of a 5f-winning dam who is half-sister to smart 6f winner Fort Del Oro. Stable boast an excellent strike rate with their juveniles and she's well worthy of a second look on debut.

Form:

(7)

St Gobnait's Charm^t²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: J M Sheridan| T: T Cooper

300/1

Last of 15 in maiden at Roscommon (250/1) 24 days ago, showed nothing and tries shorter trip today. Passed over.

Form: 00

(12)

Plushy^h²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Wayne Lordan| T: G P Cromwell

11/2

Showed ability amidst greenness when third of 8 in a 5f maiden at Bellewstown (11/1) 22 days ago on debut. Entitled to do better for that initial experience and she's one to consider.

Form: 3

(5)

Disco Version⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: L F Roche| T: R O'Brien

200/1

Ninth of 10 in 5f maiden at Down Royal (100/1) 7 days ago, slowly into stride and always behind. Nurseries promise to be more suitable moving forward.

Form: 09

(11)

Dixie Doodle

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: M W Hassett⁽³⁾| T: N Meade

18/1

Foaled March 15. €5,500 yearling. Dandy Man filly. Half-sister to 6f winner El Magnifique and 2-year-old 5f winner Dixiedoodledragon. Bred to be speedy and yard 2-15 with their juveniles on turf so far this term. Betting can unearth some clues.

Form:

(14)

La Masia²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: W Joyce⁽³⁾| T: K Smith

250/1

Twice-raced filly who again showed nothing when finishing last in 5f maiden at Bellewstown (80/1) 22 days ago, headed 2f out and weakening quickly.

Form: 08

(1)

Rosie Frith¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Patrick McGettigan⁽⁷⁾| T: P Magee| OR: 61

20/1

Cotai Glory filly who has displayed ability in 3 starts to date, ninth of 14 at Navan (14/1) 12 days ago, weakening having again pulled hard. Drop to this bare 5f may well help but she does need to learn to settle better.

Form: 069

(9)

The Right One¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Chris Hayes| T: J P Fahey| OR: 69

9/2

Showed promise when second of 13 on debut at this course (80/1) in May. Fifth of 14 in maiden at Navan (5.8f) 12 days ago, led briefly 2f out but weakening last ½f. Dropping back to 5f ought to see her in a better light.

Form: 255

(13)

Worldly⁵¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: A J Slattery| T: J Halley

80/1

Dark Angel filly who was a cheap purchase given pedigree and she offered little when finishing last of 13 in maiden at Curragh (250/1) 51 days ago on debut last month, beaten 17½ lengths. Hard to fancy.

Form: 0

Forecasts

Fair Of Emly (9/4), The Right One (9/2), Pints In Peace (9/2), Plushy (11/2), Profit Centre (15/2), Raphello (10/1), A La Dure (16/1), Dixie Doodle (18/1), Rosie Frith (20/1), Methodtomy Madness (22/1), Worldly (80/1), Disco Version (200/1), La Masia (250/1), St Gobnait's Charm (300/1)

Those with previous form set no more than a fair standard, so this may be prime for a newcomer to strike. FAIR OF EMLY ticks plenty of boxes on paper for a stable boasting an excellent strike, so she could be the way to go before market clues. Plushy and Pints In Peace both shaped up well on their respective debuts and are feared. The Right One should appreciate the return to 5f and completes the shortlist.
