Abeona²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 72

11/2

Promising third at Dundalk on debut in October but not as good in pair of recent turn runs at Naas (1m, good to firm; 9-2) and Roscommon (7f, yielding; 7-2f). Needs to find more to get on the board.

Azila^v¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: O J Orr| T: D K Weld| OR: 81

4/1

Dark Angel filly is more exposed than plenty of these but she sets the standard on form and has to be taken seriously coming back in maiden company from recent handicaps.

10/1

Ran well for a long way on seasonal bow/third start in a maiden at the Curragh (1m, good; 40-1) last month; may be suited down in distance and should give a good account with yard in fine form.

6/1

Maiden but getting the hang of things of late, culminating with solid 1L third in 7f Fairyhouse maiden last month. Held since in Naas handicap (7f, yielding to soft; 11-1) off opening mark of 78 but lively player back in this sphere.

Sir Prancealot filly out of a Papal Bull mare; hasn't beaten a rival home in maidens at Gowran (7f, good to firm; 125-1) and Naas (7f, good to yielding; 200-1) so far and makes no appeal for now.

13/2

Yet to really stake her claims after promising debut effort last term and arguably took another backward step when eighth of 13 in 1m contest at Gowran Park on latest start. Back down in trip with a bit to prove now.

150/1

Outstrip filly. Half-sister to four winners. This is a hot enough race to start career off in, and stable not that well-known for having winning newcomers. Watching brief advised.

Forecasts

Pearls Galore (9/4), Azila (4/1), Abeona (11/2), Darkest (6/1), Bounce The Blues (6/1), Sindhia (13/2), Lough Swilly Pearl (7/1), Cavell (10/1), Shillwantfornotin (40/1), Speckled Meadow (50/1), Empress Lily (66/1), Arizona Sky (66/1), Macocha (100/1), Shizaam (100/1), Summer Pearl (150/1), Stormy Jenn (150/1), Tickerdi (150/1), Lady Of Magic Hill (150/1), Pocket Edition (250/1)

Azila is more exposed than plenty of these but does set the standard on what she has done and needs respecting returning to maiden company. LOUGH SWILLY PEARL has run two sound races since returning to action, finishing second in both. The most recent of those was over 5½f at Sligo and Killian Leonard's mount is fancied to get on the scoresheet back up in trip now. Bounce The Blues should come on from a pleasing debut run, while Cavell is another with some claims.
