Casamento filly cost €15,000 as a yearling. Improved on second start at Roscommon (7f, heavy) in August when close up in third, entitled to throw her hat in the ring again on return to action.

Rip Van Winkle filly shown up well in two runs, including at Cork (1m½f, heavy) last month when touched off by 50/1 shot. Fitness will be advantageous now dropping back in trip.

Filly out of Finjaan representing top connections, trainer has his team in good order already (5-20 lately) and champion jockey picking up where he left off last term (7-31). Not quickly dismissed.

Dam an unraced half-sister to high-class winner up to 1m Toormore and very smart winner up to 1m Estidhkaar, fair effort on debut in AW maiden at Dundalk in the autumn (third), should have more to offer.

Forecasts

Shareva (6/4), Tammy Wynette (7/4), Scriobh Nua (7/4), Raintree (5/1), Simiyna (6/1), Talk Now (12/1), Silvretta Schwarz (25/1)

Verdict

SCRIOBH NUA is holding a handful of tickets to be best dances around in the coming month and having changed hands for €675,000 as a yearling an opening day success shouldn't come as any surprise. Shareva will keep her honest while Tammy Wynette and another newcomer, Simiyna, are sure to prove capable in time.
  1. Scriobh Nua
  2. Shareva
  3. Simiyna
