Alarmist¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: G M Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: D P Nagle

100/1

Motivator mare, twice-raced in bumpers to little effect, sent off 100-1 in a Limerick maiden over a mile last week on Flat bow and never a danger, stiff ask again.

Lispheasty

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: C P Hoban| T: S K Ryder

100/1

Born To Sea filly, related to multiple winners though pedigree does suggest a longer trip might prove ideal before long.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: C O'Donoghue| T: A Leahy

100/1

Gelded son of Gregorian out of maiden hurdle winner Godwit, beaten wide margins in pair of 1m Limerick maidens so far, may be one for low-grade handicaps after this.

Form: 90

Be Fair

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Colin Keane| T: J J Murphy

16/1

36,000 gns yearling, Kyllachy gelding is a half-brother to winner up to 1m1 Chicadoro and 1m-1m1f winner Kaanoon. Entitled to be decent, market should reveal more on first outing.

Desert Viper⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: L F Roche| T: J A Stack

9/1

By Footstepsinthesand, gelding improved on second start recently at Gowran Park, just missing out on a place. Both runs so far have come with soft in the going description. Up in trip and possible improver.

Form: 04

Endless Summer^h1²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: E J McNamara| T: S Lynam

33/1

Son of Born To Sea, not without promise in maiden runs at Navan and the Curragh either side of an 89-day layoff, though will have to take a step forward to get in the shake-up now.

Form: 07

(5)

Latent Heat

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K J Leonard| T: J J Murphy

33/1

Papal Bull gelding, half-brother to useful 7f-1m2½f winner Spruce Meadows. Second runner for the yard in this line-up, market useful in assessing prospects.

4/1

By Toronado, in the frame both runs so far in 1m maiden at Navan and the Curragh last month, though has a bit of improvement to find in order to launch a genuine winning challenge now.

Form: 32

33/1

Bated Breath filly; a half-sister to three winners, including useful winner up to 1m Graser and two-year-old 7f winner Gregoria. Cost €35,000 as a yearling and merits a close look.

Romantic Proposal⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Declan McDonogh| T: E Lynam| OR: 70| BF

7/4

Raven's Pass filly, improving with racing and has finished close second on previous two starts at Gowran Park and Navan over this trip. Should be in the firing line again.

Form: 322

Time Tunnel^v1³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: L Dettori| T: D K Weld

11/4

Invincible Spirit filly, improved on second start when runner-up behind now 90-rated next-time out winner Morpho Blue at Leopardstown (7f, good to firm). First-time visor on and a player likely to prove popular with Dettori booked.

Forecasts

Romantic Proposal (7/4), Time Tunnel (11/4), Prisoner's Dilemma (4/1), Royal Aide (4/1), Tauran Shaman (8/1), Desert Viper (9/1), Be Fair (16/1), Accept (25/1), Day Dreamin' (28/1), Queen Amidala (33/1), Latent Heat (33/1), Endless Summer (33/1), Ask Delaney (100/1), Alarmist (100/1), Lispheasty (100/1)

Having found only the useful Morpho Blue too strong on second start TIME TUNNEL might well open her account here. She gets new headgear and ought to be suited by the step up in distance. She'll prove a very popular winner should she oblige in the hands of the visiting Frankie Dettori. Romantic Proposal is the key danger on form shown while newcomers Tauran Shaman, Be Fair and Accept all need a close look.
