8/13

Improved - as yard juveniles often do - from debut run at the Curragh to land a Bellewstown maiden in good style winning by 4½L. Another bold show looks likely.

Confucius

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Gavin Brouder⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss K Brown

66/1

Colt by Morpheus out of a Bertolini mare. Cost €6,000 as a two-year-old and is half-brother to three winners including the useful Ascot Memory and Navarone. Yard not renowned for their youngsters and best watched here.

Kodi Dream⁶

33/1

Coach House colt, cost 17,000 gns as a two-year-old. Dam a half-sister to a juvenile winner over this trip and another useful AW performer. Nothing of note in two starts to date.

Form: 98

Glamorous Power¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: R P Downey| T: E Lynam

9/4

18,000gns yearling. Slade Power filly is a half-sister to 5f winner Glamorous Rocket and has plenty of speed in pedigree. Promising second of 11 beaten 1L behind Sakura in a Navan maiden earlier this month. Can be expected to improve.

7/1

Helmet filly is a half-sister to 6f winner Centre Haafhd and 1m winner Feisty Valentina. Has produced a couple of fairly solid runs to date but may be up against it here.

Forecasts

Bailly (8/13), Glamorous Power (9/4), Sundance Star (7/1), Heart Stealer (7/1), Kodi Dream (33/1), Confucius (66/1)

The Ger Lyons-trained BAILLY can land the opener here confirming his superiority over Sundance Star when taking a Bellewstown maiden in good style winning by 4½L. The Slade Power filly Glamorous Power can be expected to improve on a game Navan maiden earlier this month while the Helmut colt Heart Seeker looks an interesting newcomer.
