Abamanova¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery

1/1

Camacho filly who is a half-sister to two winners at a fair level. Promising third of 10 on debut at Curragh and can only come on for the run.

13/8

Filly out of Zoffany has shown ability in 7f maidens at Roscommon, Galway and last time out in a Leopardstown maiden (6f) on good ground. Fair claims now dropped to the minimum distance.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: L F Roche| T: W Durkan

50/1

Arakan filly, lost all hope of making an impression when blowing the start on debut at Curragh last month. Hard to see what improvement first-time hood brings.

Zoffany filly, yard don't have a strong record with 2yos, fifth of 10 on debut, before a tardy start put paid to any run last time out at Tipperary.

Ty Rock Brandy¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Chris Hayes| T: L Smyth

Forecasts

Abamanova (1/1), Daliyah (13/8), Spirit Power (7/1), Scarlet Ribbons (16/1), Ty Rock Brandy (25/1), Lady Sonia (25/1), Bellick (33/1), Premier League (50/1), Magsmillie (50/1), March Fifteen (66/1)

DALIYAH has shown plenty dash in three outings so far and just failed to see things out last time over 6f at Leopardstown on good ground. With her trainer continuing to go well, 18% strike rate lately, she could take some stopping if handling this minimum trip at the first time of asking. Abamanova made a decent fist of things over the trip at the Curragh on debut earlier in the month and can play a leading role with normal improvement while Spirit Power boasts more experience than most of his rivals and is capable of grabbing place money.
