Battleforsupremacy¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Scott McCullagh| T: Daniel McLoughlin

150/1

Hooded (now removed) and looked badly in need of the experience when last of 12 in maiden at Down Royal (5f, good) on debut 13 days ago.

Form: 0

(1)

Controlled^b1⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: J Cleary⁽⁵⁾| T: A P O'Brien

10/3

Plenty of speed in his pedigree and will have learned plenty from debut, finishing eighth of 28 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to firm, 9/1) 40 days ago. Plenty of improvers in that maiden and a bolder showing expected dropping to 5f in first-time blinkers.

Form: 8

Namiid²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Coen| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 86| BF

7/4

Looked much more straightforward when third in a listed race at the Curragh (5f) last month and backed that up when second of 12 in a maiden (6/5) at Navan (5f, good) 21 days ago. Looks all speed and should give another good account if handling conditions.

Form: 633032

Spicetown⁷⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Sam Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery

14/1

No better than on debut when eighth of 12 in maiden at Tipperary (5f, good to firm) 78 days ago. Looks one for the longer-term.

Form: 68

(4)

Aegina¹⁵⁹

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

9/5

£240,000 yearling, Havana Grey filly is bred to be sharp and made an encouraging debut when second of 7 at the Curragh (5f, good) on debut, with fellow newcomer Charles Darwin (now useful) back in fourth. Looks the one to beat if ready to roll on reappearance.

Form: 2

(6)

Cheaperbythebottle³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Leigh Roche| T: D Marnane

125/1

Has yet to beat a rival in two starts. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 90

(8)

Lilbittyprettyone^t1¹⁰³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Nathan Crosse| T: D Marnane

28/1

Ran to a fair level on debut but best not judged on most recent effort when eighth of 12 in maiden at Navan (5f, good, 50/1) in June, having reportedly had a breathing problem. Bit to prove now fitted with tongue strap for first time (yard also saddle Cheaperbythebottle).

Form: 58

(7)

Rumba Club

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ronan Whelan| T: J P Fahey

18/1

Coulsty filly. Half-sister to French/Italian 2-y-o 5f/5.5f winner La Discoteca and 5f winner Tees Aggregates. Dam unraced sister to useful 5f winner Online Alexander. Bred to make an impact as a juvenile but yard not renowned for their winning debutantes.

Form:

(11)

Schoolyard Days¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: N G McCullagh| T: M C Grassick

33/1

Speedily bred and hinted at ability when sixth of 15 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good, 40/1) on debut 12 days ago, ran green and kept on. Should know more this time.

Form: 6

(2)

Stonezilian¹²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Nicola Burns⁽⁷⁾| T: A Murray

50/1

Last of 6 over this trip on debut and still green when twelfth of 15 in maiden at Roscommon (7.5f, good, 40/1) Significantly back down in trip for his reappearance but hard to be confident unless the market expects a bolder showing.

Form: 60

(5)

Whatastarr^p1³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Jack Kearney⁽³⁾| T: J Davison

14/1

€260,000 yearling, No Nay Never filly hinted at ability when ninth of 14 in maiden at Cork (5f, good) on debut 35 days ago, unable to sustain effort. That form has some substance but remains to be seen if she can build on it with cheekpieces on for first time.

Form: 9

Forecasts

Namiid (7/4), Aegina (9/5), Controlled (10/3), Whatastarr (14/1), Spicetown (14/1), Rumba Club (18/1), Lilbittyprettyone (28/1), Schoolyard Days (33/1), Stonezilian (50/1), Cheaperbythebottle (125/1), Battleforsupremacy (150/1)

AEGINA shaped well when runner-up in a strong Curragh maiden on debut in April and looks the one to beat if returning in similar form. The speedy Namiid was third in a listed race prior finishing runner up in a maiden at Navan last month and looks the chief threat, though Controlled may prove a different proposition second time up in headgear.
