Half-brother to two French winners in Mouraska (1m3f) and Momour (1m4f). Winner on debut in March on the AW at Dundalk before something amiss on first turf start at Naas earlier this month. First-time blinkers immediately reached for.

Born to Sea gelding out of a Montjeu mare. Off the mark for connections at just the second attempt in a Sligo 1m2½f maiden earlier in the month. Live player on handicap debut.

Filly by New Approach out of a Pivotal mare. Seventh of nine on two-year-old debut in a Navan Listed contest in October before winning on the AW at Dundalk when last seen in February. Entitled to make the shortlist.

Off the mark on her second career start at Limerick in October. Well held finishing eighth of 18 at Leopardstown on seasonal debut last month in a race that has produced three subsequent winners. Likable type who should be in the mix.

Four-race maiden without a win in three turf starts. Running well in defeat in a couple of starts this term and could well improve here in first time blinkers.

Highly promising debut when 5L fifth of 12 behind Group One winner Magna Grecia in September. Has disappointed in fours starts since but could well improve on initial handicap starts in first-time blinkers.

Generally well held in three starts last term. Sent off at odds of 100/1 when last seen in September and needs to raise overall profile to play a part in this company.

Yet to hit the frame in six career starts. Best run came in a Clonmel 1m1½f maiden finishing fourth of 14 last month. Others look more convincing at this level.

Not beaten far in a number of starts since the turn of the year. Promising sixth of 13 beaten a little over 4L at Gowran Park on her latest start last month and remains open to improvement.

Four-race maiden who looked out of sorts on first start for new connections, finishing down the field at Gowran Park earlier this month. Likely to find it tough going.

Without success in seven career starts to date. Best run to date came when finishing second of 16 on second handicap start at Gowran Park in October. Well held on seasonal return this month and best watched on first-time cheekpieces.

Forecasts

A Wave Of The Sea (5/2), Conor Hogan (4/1), Laethanta Saoire (11/2), Lyrical Attraction (6/1), Paris Duvet (8/1), Mallacoota (8/1), Winiata (9/1), Majority Share (12/1), Mouriyani (16/1), Aneczka (16/1), Elusive Fantasy (20/1), Sheamer Princess (25/1), Starbella (33/1), Mosh (40/1)

Verdict

The 10lb rise in the weights for Cork winner, Lyrical Attraction may be enough for the Joseph O'Brien-trained, A WAVE OF THE SEA to take advantage on his way to winning for the second time on third career start here. In a wide open handicap it may pay to give the Jessica Harrington-trained, Mallacoota, Conor Hogan for Ger Lyons and the Jim Bolger filly, Laethanta Saoire consideration in the run up to post time.
  1. A Wave Of The Sea
  2. Mallacoota
