Dahlia Noir - 16:55 Leopardstown
Flags: Horse In Focus, Top Rated
Dahlia Noir cost €125,000 as a yearling and made plenty of appeal on paper - her dam was a mile and a half winner out of half-sister to top-class miler Rock of Gibraltar - and she shaped very well amidst signs of inexperience when finishing runner-up over a similar trip at this course on her debut last month. She missed the break on that occasion, but made good headway out wide on the home turn, and stayed on well to be beaten two lengths by another above-average newcomer. Dahlia Noir looks a sure-fire improver on the back of that effort and she sets a good standard on form.
