Elusive Pimpernel gelding, dam a winner over 1m2f. Ran well on debut and produced a similar level of performance when a beaten favourite at Killarney last time. Has been slowly away on both starts and that's a little off-putting on return here.

Epaulette gelding, cost £70,000 as a yearling. Well bred sort but well beaten on each of his three starts and no obvious reason he will improve for the drop back in trip here.

9/2
Still a maiden after eight starts but has run well in defeat on several outings and versatile with regards to ground. Just about sets the standard on form but looks vulnerable to improvers.
Bated Breath filly, closely related to useful 1m winner Sir Danilo. Unseated rider on debut and well beaten at Leopardstown last time out. Hard to fancy.

Raven's Pass filly, cost 20,000 gns as a foal. is a half-sister to three winners, including smart 1m2f winner Dark Red. Dam placed in Listed class . Only narrowly beaten on debut at Cork and likely to improve here.

Maxios filly, cost €4,200 as a yearling. Half-sister to three winners and dam a Listed winner and half-sister to two more. Entitled to need this on debut but makes some appeal on paper at least.

Well beaten on all three of her starts and didn't beat a rival home when last of 14 here last time. Hard to fancy.

Forecasts

Mazzuri (11/10), Elysian Plains (5/2), Shifted Strategy (9/2), Timiniya (6/1), Moktamel (8/1), Nexxia (33/1), Every Breath (50/1), Arctic Edge (50/1), Whiskey Treat (66/1)

Verdict

MAZZURI ran well on debut and is bred well enough to suggest she can improve here on just her second start. Timiniya has to be of interest in first-time headgear having run well on both her starts to date while Elysian Plains can't be ruled out if he can get away on terms.
  1. Mazzuri
  2. Timiniya
  3. Elysian Plains
