Diego El Queso¹⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Colin Keane| T: G M Lyons

11/8

Promising individual. Fourth of 12 in maiden (4/1) at Navan (8f, good to firm), clear of rest. Off 147 days (gelded in the interim), but he's open to improvement and will be a big player if fully tuned-up.

Form: 64

Gran Habano³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: D Browne McMonagle| T: A Murray| OR: 78

9/1

Fairly useful gelding. Remains a maiden after 12 Flat runs. Creditable second of 14 in maiden at Galway (7f, good to soft, 14/1) 35 days ago, no match for winner. Solid claims.

9/2

Thrice-raced gelding. Third of 16 in maiden at Fairyhouse (7f, good, 11/8) 88 days ago. Stable in good form and he's one of the likelier winners.

Form: 543

Rodeo Star

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: James Ryan| T: S Crawley

100/1

Harry Angel colt. Half-brother to winners abroad by Brazen Beau and Toronado. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner on paper.

Starspangled Dream

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Jack Kearney⁽³⁾| T: G M Lyons

40/1

Starspangledbanner gelding. Brother to high-class 5f-9f winner California Spangle. Dam maiden (stayed 1¼m). Likely type on paper, but jockey bookings suggest that Diego El Queso is the stable No 1.

Profitable gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 7f/1m winner Flying Fairies. Wears tongue strap. Will probably come on for the run.

150/1

Twice-raced filly. Last of 6 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft, 17/2) 49 days ago, slowly away. Readily passed over.

40/1

Once-raced filly. 16/1, fifth of 13 in maiden at Cork (10.4f, good) on debut 19 days ago. Significantly down in trip and she will need to take a sizeable step forward in order to take this.

Form: 5

Forecasts

Diego El Queso (11/8), Playin Cool (7/2), Poweracclaim (9/2), Tina's Charm (5/1), Minaun View (8/1), Gran Habano (9/1), Men Of Honour (12/1), Take Me (14/1), Lavender Breeze (16/1), Starspangled Dream (40/1), Ciunas (40/1), Millraceflow (66/1), Cannonball Queen (66/1), Three Sixteen (100/1), Rodeo Star (100/1), Diva Time (100/1), Tokyo Treasure (125/1), Precious Pennies (125/1), Piatra Neamt (150/1)

DIEGO EL QUESO showed plenty of promise in two starts during the spring and, provided he is ready to roll following a break, the son of Blue Point may well make it third time lucky here. Though still a maiden following a dozen attempts, Gran Habano looks dangerous and he is feared most ahead of Poweracclaim, while Lavender Breeze and Tina's Charm are others to consider.
