True Artist³²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: W Joyce⁽⁷⁾| T: G O'Leary| OR: 77

7/2

Fairly useful gelding who ran up to best equipped with first-time blinkers when second of 14 in maiden (3/1) at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Should be thereabouts again but now a maiden on the back of 11 career starts.

Boomerang Bill^t⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: S M Crosse| T: J P O'Brien

Form: 5

66/1

Once-raced gelding. Fourth of 7 in maiden (12/1) at Killarney (11.2f, good) on debut 10 days ago, never a threat. This should reveal more.

Form: 4

(10)

Free To Party^p1²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Ben Coen| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 78

4/1

Thrice-raced gelding. 15/2, fourth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (1m) keeping on final 1f. Open to further improvement and step back up to 10f rates a plus. Respected.

Form: 424

(6)

Impero^b1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: G M Ryan| T: Donnacha O'Brien| OR: 79| BF

3/1

Unreliable type. 11/8, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Limerick (12.5f, good) 15 days ago. Stable having good spell. Blinkers on 1st time but not one to be taking short odds about.

Form: 23-3445

(9)

200/1

Form: 6

Form:

(8)

Hazy Mehmory^h1⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons| OR: 80

11/5

Mehmas filly who has showed race-by-race progress in trio of starts to date, fairly useful form when second of 13 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, soft, 15/2) 59 days ago, keeping on. Sound claims.

Form: 0-92

Forecasts

Hazy Mehmory (11/5), Impero (3/1), True Artist (7/2), Free To Party (4/1), Compere (10/1), Angel Of The Pace (14/1), Boomerang Bill (14/1), Tommythelongfella (40/1), Foreign Policy (66/1), Stepping Sandstone (200/1)

HAZY MEHMORY has shown race-by-race progress in a trio of starts to date, finding only the progressive Flying Dolphin too strong on her latest start at Gowran in May, and a repeat may be enough to see her come out on top here. Free To Party and True Artist are others to consider.
