Outstrip gelding purchased for €23,000 at the sales last autumn. Half-brother to dual winner Railport Dolly. Slowly away eventually making no impression on debut when 13th of 15 at Roscommon over 7f last month. First time blinkers may well assist.

1/1

Camacho colt, cost €19,000 as a foal and £45,000 as a yearling. Plenty to take out of both career starts to date and this likable type should be in the mix in the shadows of the post.

Gutaifan colt out of a Footstepsinthesand mare. Dam placed on the AW over 6f as a two-year-old. Never recovered from tardy start on debut in a Tipperary 5f maiden last month finishing ninth of 12. Better expected stepping up in trip.

Forecasts

Latin Five (1/1), Pixel Power (3/1), Croughavouke (6/1), Mogwli (8/1), Bigz Belief (10/1), Settle Me Down (18/1), Gunmetal Jack (20/1), Kosman (33/1), Calidus Mirabilis (33/1), Camogue Wood (33/1), Jm Barrie (50/1)

The Joseph O'Brien-trained LATIN FIVE can get off the mark for connections at the third time of asking in the opener. The Camacho colt can get the better of debutante Pixel Power, a Dream Ahead filly who represents the Jessica Harrington yard who have their juveniles in tip top condition. Dandy Man filly, Croughavouke and the Willie McCreery-trained Mogwli can battle for remaining prize money.
