Blazing Skies³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: W J Lee| T: W McCreery

13/8

Dark Angel filly who impressed with how well she travelled for a long way when fourth of 12 in maiden (10/1) at Naas (8f, good) on debut 31 days ago. Open to progress.

Form: 4

Endless Season¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Ronan Whelan| T: M Halford

14/1

Twice-raced filly. 66/1, left debut form well behind over shorter trip when third of 13 in maiden at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 13 days ago, needing stiffer test. This step up to 7f looks sure to suit and she's open to further progress.

4/1

Thrice-raced filly who failed to build on the promise of last run when sixth of 12 in 1m maiden at Naas (8f, good, 3/1) 31 days ago. Remains early days.

28/1

Highland Reel filly who ran to just a poor level when tenth of 24 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, heavy) on debut 9 months ago. Will need to leave that effort well behind to feature.

Forecasts

Blazing Skies (13/8), Sistine Madonna (9/4), Giulia Frasi (4/1), Sefarina (7/1), Scipio's Defense (14/1), Endless Season (14/1), Nozomi (28/1), Zamm Zulu (66/1)

SISTINE MADONNA matched her previous form in a competitive 3-y-o handicap at Killarney back in May, and with a host of next-time-out winners emerging from that contest, Joseph O'Brien's charge is afforded the vote back in maiden company. Endless Season took a big step forward from her debut effort when third at Fairyhouse earlier this month so she earns the vote to go a place better here, ahead of Blazing Skies.
