50/1

Filly by Holy Roman Emperor out of a Sadlers Wells mare. Cost €48,000 as a yearling. Well fended off at Roscommon and Listowel and has plenty more to find.

Bodhicitta^t²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Leigh Roche| T: M O'Callaghan| OR: 74

12/1

Maiden of four starts seemed to run best race so far latest in a 1m nursery at Killarney (second) although she was soundly beaten. Likely can have eyes on place money now.

Casting Call²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

50/1

Well beaten when finishing 19th of 23 in a 7f maiden at the Curragh (yielding). Others make more appeal in this field.

Easter Orchid

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Wayne Lordan| T: J P O'Brien

20/1

Camelot filly out of a half-sister to useful Hebridean, represents bang in-form yard on debut and needs close scrutiny as such.

Fiadhna

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Colin Keane| T: Madeleine Tylicki

50/1

Yeats filly, bred to want plenty further than a mile but booking of champion jockey for this first start is noted and worth a look in the betting.

Form:

(5)

For Your Eyes⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: C O'Donoghue| T: Mrs J Harrington

6/1

Iffraaj filly is a half-sister to a winner over 1m2f and 1m4f out of a dam who scored over 1m3f. Leading trainer does well enough with two-year-olds and expected to improve after third at Cork on debut.

Form: 3

Fujimoto Flyer

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Ronan Whelan| T: E Mullins

12/1

Japanese-bred filly, trainer scored first-time-out with useful looking colt Duckett's Grove in these colours at Cork last month, not discounted here.

Majority Share

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Lee| T: A Oliver

33/1

Born To Sea filly, another that likely will want a trip in time, half-sister to a couple of winners however and not one to ignore.

Form:

Mia Maria

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Declan McDonogh| T: D K Weld

10/1

Sister to this yard's multiple scorer Carla Bianca, makes her first start here and the daughter of Dansili is worth pay attention to.

Pimstrel⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Rory Cleary| T: J P Fahey

40/1

Filly by Elusive Pimpernel out of an Ashkalani mare. Cost a lowly €2,500 as a yearling. Improved to finished fourth on second start at Listowel this month and can be given place claims now.

Pink Dogwood²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: D O'Brien| T: A P O'Brien| BF

4/6

€380,000 yearling by Camelot is full-sister to this year's Irish Derby winner Latrobe. Runner-up in both starts so far at the Curragh and no shock if he goes one better here.

Form: 22

Suaimhneach⁴⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K J Manning| T: J S Bolger

33/1

Vocalised filly played up at the start here on debut earlier in the month and was in rear throughout after a slow start. Very hard to fancy on what we saw on the track.

Form: 0

(14)

The Tooth Fairy

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: A P O'Brien

14/1

Certainly makes appeal on paper, being a sister to Found, amongst multiple winners in the family. Respected, though stablemate Pink Dogwood sets the standard of those to have run.

Form:

(11)

Titanium Sky

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: C P Hoban| T: D K Weld

50/1

Dark Angel filly, second runner for Dermot Weld in this line-up and jockey booking hint that she is second choice from Rosewell House.

Form:

(2)

Vivalicious²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Nathan Crosse⁽⁷⁾| T: P F McEnery

100/1

Filly by Beat Hollow is a half-sister to three winners including a Listed winner in Italy and a 2m hurdle scorer. Not achieved a lot in two starts at Cork and the Curragh and overlooked here.

Form: 50

Forecasts

Pink Dogwood (4/6), For Your Eyes (6/1), Mia Maria (10/1), Bodhicitta (12/1), Fujimoto Flyer (12/1), The Tooth Fairy (14/1), Easter Orchid (20/1), Majority Share (33/1), Suaimhneach (33/1), Pimstrel (40/1), Titanium Sky (50/1), Casting Call (50/1), Anyonecanbeasaint (50/1), Fiadhna (50/1), Vivalicious (100/1)

PINK DOGWOOD improved to be second at the Curragh last month over this trip on her second start. The daughter of Camelot chased home a rival that has since come out and performed well in Listed company and it isn't hard to envisage her going one better now. Jessica Harrington had the winner in that race and For Your Eyes is next best here from those that have run. There are plenty notable newcomers on paper that could pose threats, with Mia Maria, Easter Orchid and The Tooth Fairy amongst the likely ones.
