Very strong effort when runner-up in C&D maiden three weeks ago, sets the target on form for this.

Fairly modest in three starts so far, tendency to hang in the finish. Passed over for now.

Tailed off on sole previous start which came on turf at Roscommon in August and leaves him with a whole lot to prove for now.

Upped in trip again for this but hasn't threatened in two starts here to date, visored now.

An inexpensive Fastnet Rock colt, finished last of ten in C&D maiden three weeks ago, having been out the back for most of the journey.

Promising debut in mile maiden in December but took a backwards step a fortnight ago over 7f in second start. Hard to assess as a result.

Two of three runs here have been laden with promise, both at this trip. 3lb lower than last month's close-up third and entitled to do better with runner-up Allography on revised terms.

Just three runs in maidens around here so far, generally been struggling to land any kind of blow.

Ninth of ten in a Fillies' maiden over C&D a fortnight ago, weakening having been in a decent position turning in.

The only one to finish behind Kitsune last time on just second start, has a lot of ground to make up to get competitive.

Dalakhani filly is very nicely related and made a pleasing start over C&D last month, bit to find with Allography on that run but no surprise if she improves.

Much improved effort to chase home easy winner Zinat last time on third start, could be good enough to win this if building on that effort.

Forecasts

Allography (4/6), Sir Danilo (4/1), Memorial Rose (4/1), Loose Chippings (10/1), Secret Memories (12/1), Enemy Of The State (33/1), Woodcarver (33/1), D K Travel (50/1), Fontainbleau (50/1), Earl Of Bunnacurry (66/1), Kitsune (66/1), Lavinuela (66/1)

Verdict

Allography sets the standard on form on his second last time out and, having stuck to his task gamely he'll be hard to discount in the finish again. Sir Danilo was not far behind in third on that occasion while debutant Memorial Rose could be capable of improving enough to have a big say on her second start. SECRET MEMORIES was no match for the promising Zinat last time but did enough to finish second, with blinkers going on now she could have more to offer and gets the nod in this contest. Loose Chippings would hold claims if putting together a similar effort to his debut over C&D now returned to this trip.
