Not disgraced in six career starts to date and his basic form deserves a change of luck since April. Entitled to make the shortlist here.

€30,000 as a yearling this Famous Name gelding out of an Indian Ridge mare is related to decent money-spinner Right Honourable winner in Hong Kong. Market likely to reveal expectations on debut.

Plenty to like about the geldings starts as a four-year-old this term shaping like a step up in trip would suit in starts at Leopardstown and the Curragh recently. Open to a good deal of improvement.

By Yeats out of a Shernazar mare, she is related to multiple winners Montaly and Question Of Faith. Not much to shout about in three career starts to date and hard to place any faith in here.

Hurdling recently and last seen on the Flat finishing 57L adrift of Decision Time in a Fairyhouse maiden in October. Still without a win in nine starts on turf and unlikely to change here.

Roughly well beaten in four of her five starts on the Flat so may have been flattered by her second of 14 at Limerick in April. Watching brief for now.

5/4
Zoffany filly is a half-sister to 1m3f-1m4f winner Marmaduke. Can be expected to improve on just her second career start at Listowel recently when running True To Herself to ½ over 1m on good ground. One for the shortlist in this company.

Forecasts

Zoffanyia (5/4), Prosecution (11/8), Dragon Phoenix (8/1), Dayereh (8/1), Navajo Ridge (10/1), Allora Yeats (25/1), Hawthorn Echo (40/1), Bracklin Princess (40/1)

Verdict

The potentially improving ZOFFANYIA will look to enrich her form earlier this month when second of 15 over 1m in a Listowel maiden and get off the mark for connections at the third time of asking. The Johnny Murtagh-trained Prosecution shaped like a step up in trip would suit in a couple of starts recently, along with Dayereh and Navajo Ridge are worthy of consideration in the closing contest.
  1. Zoffanyia
  2. Prosecution
  3. Navajo Ridge
