Price rose considerably from foal to yearling with this Oasis Dream gelding having plenty of stamina on the dam's side of the pedigree. Improvement needed on desolate first run here last month.

4/1

Fair sixth when making her debut in a 1m maiden at Leopardstown before a couple of improving starts at Tipperary and Listowel towards the end of the season. Could be a leading player on AW debut in first-time hood.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: M A Gallagher| T: J C McConnell| OR: 64

Improved performance on her third career start here over 1m4f last month. May have to settle for a minor role in this company.

Filly by Red Jazz out of a Invincible Spirit mare. Improvement needed on first tow career starts here last month. Hard to place any faith in.

Forecasts

Ciao (6/4), Twenty Minutes (7/2), Bright Eyed (4/1), Cj Cregg (8/1), Pacific Fleet (8/1), Watchman (12/1), Crest Of A Wave (25/1), Prize Winner (50/1), Mighty Jasper (50/1), Jazzy J (66/1), Misdjazz (100/1), Reaper Man (100/1)

The Dermot Weld four-year-old, BRIGHT EYED, in first-time hood can land the spoils here getting off the mark for connections at the fifth time of asking, getting the better of promising types, Ciao, in first-time blinkers, Pacific Feat, on stable debut and Watchman, who can go well at a price.
