Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Flat Race

Off time: 20:45 | Winning time: 3m 57.40s

Arbor Vitae

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr A Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs D A Love

66/1

Daughter of Arcadio out of an Oscar mare. Cost €5,000 as a three-year-old. Sister to the useful 2m - 2m4f hurdle winner I'm A Game Changer. Possibly best watched on debut unless market has other ideas.

Form:

Bonarc²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr E P O'Brien⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan

9/1

Arcadio filly who ran well in defeat on recent hurdling debut at this track finishing second of 14. In a position to improve on a previous bumper start at Limerick in March.

Form: F0-2

Crinkly Leafs

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr T Hamilton⁽⁵⁾| T: R O'Sullivan

33/1

Daughter of Arctic Cosmos out of an Exit To Nowhere mare. Half-sister to point-to-point winner Tricky Silence. Looks to be a future prospect.

Form:

Gise Girl¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: R Deegan⁽⁵⁾| T: E F Gallagher

10/1

Stowaway mare who improved from debut run to finish fourth of 18 beaten 4L in a Cork bumper earlier this month. Others look more convincing but capable of hitting the frame.

Form: 7/6-4

Highstreet Roller^t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: T Gibney

33/1

Won a point-to-point 12 months ago, subsequently changing hands for £20,000. Yet to rubber stamp that price tag with a couple of dismal efforts since including a 52L defeat in a Cork bumper earlier this month.

Form: 16-0

Kupcake

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Ms K Ferris⁽⁷⁾| T: Christian Delcros

100/1

Daughter of Kalanisi out of a Sesaro mare. Dam unplaced in a number of starts in bumpers. Half-sister to French 1m7f Listed winner, Colour Scheme. Watching brief on debut.

Form:

Lady Of Elysium⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: G Elliott

5/1

Can possibly be forgiven her dismal run in a Down Royal bumper in March based on the promise the Doyen mare showed in a couple of earlier races since the turn of the year. Strong place claims.

Form: 428-

New Found Glory

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr J C Barry⁽⁵⁾| T: N Lee

33/1

Daughter of Fame And Glory out of a Bob's Return mare. Half-sister to 2m4f hurdle winner High Five Oscar. Likely to need more time and will possibly appreciate the education on debut.

Form:

Shelton Abbess¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr R W Barron⁽⁷⁾| T: Edward P Mitchell

100/1

Getaway mare finished nearer last than first on debut in a Cork bumper earlier this month when lagging 46L behind the winner. Hard to place any faith in.

Form: 0

Stowaway Sarah²⁷⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr R James⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Fahy

14/1

Daughter of Stowaway produced a couple of encouraging runs at Limerick and Kilbeggan when last seen last summer. Makes plenty of appeal on return and market should prove informative.

Form: 9/43-

Miss Cognac³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr M J O'Hare⁽³⁾| T: N Meade

2/1

Positive start to her career when fourth of 14 before finishing second of 14 beaten 1¾L in a couple of early starts at Wexford last month in races that have produced five subsequent winners. One for the shortlist.

Form: 42-

Our Patsy¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Miss M O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss S A Finn

100/1

Shirocco filly out of a Revoque mare. Dam unraced. Raced in rear for most of the way when finishing a detached 12th of 14 well beaten on debut in a Killarney bumper earlier this month.

Form: 0

Rambling Rose

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr J Hogan⁽⁷⁾| T: S Ryan

25/1

Daughter of Mahler out of a Zaffaran mare. Sister to point-to-point and 2m6f winner Mahler And Me. Market likely to reveal expectations on debut.

Form:

Skyace

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

3/1

Daughter of Westerner out of a Milan mare. Dam unraced out of bumper winning half-sister to 3m1f chase victor, Skeheenarinky. Likely to be a warm order on debut.

Form:

Yabo⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr F Maguire⁽³⁾| T: Miss E Doyle

12/1

Filly by Dylan Thomas who finished fifth of nine on a promising debut run at Naas over 2m when last seen in March. May have to settle for minor prize money.

Form: 5-

Zalika²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr L J McGuinness⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs D A Love

25/1

Shirocco filly who has failed to complete in any of her three career point-to-point starts since March. Form doesn't warrant support here.

Forecasts

Miss Cognac (2/1), Skyace (3/1), Lady Of Elysium (5/1), Creadan Belle (8/1), Bonarc (9/1), Gise Girl (10/1), Yabo (12/1), Stowaway Sarah (14/1), Rambling Rose (25/1), Zalika (25/1), Crinkly Leafs (33/1), Highstreet Roller (33/1), New Found Glory (33/1), Arbor Vitae (66/1), My Red Devil Girl (66/1), Shelton Abbess (100/1), Our Patsy (100/1), Kupcake (100/1)

The leading duo of trainer Willie Mullins and jockey Paul Townend can land the closer here with SKYACE. The daughter of Westerner can land the spoils on debut with the Noel Meade-trained Miss Cognac and Yabo for the Liz Doyle yard proving to be the biggest dangers.
