4/9

€15,000 3-y-o, £200,000 4-y-o, Jet Away filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, notably fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Topofthecotswolds. Winning pointer from top yard so newcomer is well worth noting.

Quest For Peace filly. Half-sister to 6.7f-1m winner Annie Irish. Dam 5f-6f winner. Other debutantes appeal more on paper.

7/2

3/1, showed ability on debut (in third when slipped up close home) in bumper at Punchestown (16.4f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 9 months but in good hands so much respected.

66/1

Finsceal Fior filly. Dam ran once on Flat out of unraced close relative of Belmont Stakes winner Lemon Drop Kid. Newcomer faces no easy introduction.

13/2

€62,000 3-y-o, Presenting filly. Dam, fairly useful bumper/2m hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdler/chaser La Bague Au Roi. Wears tongue strap. Bred to be no back number so worth a second look.

Form:

Rocked Up²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: G J McKeever

16/1

Westerner filly. Closely related to bumper winner/fairly useful 21f hurdle winner Pride of Lecale. Disqualified after winning point so newcomer makes some appeal. Worth a market check.

Form: U1F

200/1

Tongue strap on, last of 7 in bumper at Limerick (16f, heavy, 28/1) on NH debut 25 days ago. Big step forward is required.

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Ms L O'Neill| T: G Elliott

16/1

8/1, hinted at promise when fifth of 6 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 9 months but sister to useful hurdler The Big Breakaway so sure to do better for top yard.

Forecasts

Brandy Love (4/9), Cathmart Desjy (7/2), Presentingnewyork (13/2), Say Goodbye (16/1), Rocked Up (16/1), Watermelon Girl (20/1), Birthday Bayeb (40/1), Newmills Glory (66/1), Miss Aimee (66/1), Cashels Quest (125/1), Rossies Tara (200/1)

BRANDY LOVE made a winning debut in points so is fancied to start repaying her £2000,000 price tag at the first time of asking now she is under the care of Willie Mullins. Say Goodbye is also in excellent hands and showed promise when a debut fifth in a Leopardstown bumper so rates the chief threat, although debutante Presentingnewyork is not without interest either and worth a market check.
