Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Maiden Hurdle

Off time: 15:15 | Winning time: 5m 0.20s

Amboyna¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: J & T Kiely| OR: 102| C

14/1

Fairly useful in bumpers and was running to a similar level when unseating at the last on hurdles debut last year. Well below that form in recent maidens, unseated rider 2 out when weakening at Roscommon (16/1) 10 days ago. Would need to be back to her best to be competitive.

Form: 2U-664U

Ballinagaine Girl¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Adam Leahy⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

250/1

Making hurdle debut after only previous run came in a bumper at Listowel (33/1) 13 days ago when 10th of 16, well held from home turn. Up in trip for hurdles debut but is probably one for later on.

Form: 0

Glenmalure Lady^t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: C O'Connell

50/1

From a family this yard know well. Eighth of 15 in a bumper at Listowel (50/1) on debut 15 days ago, effort flattened out. Makes hurdles debut but may need more time/distance.

Form: 11P3-18

Katie's Casper^t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Patrick M O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: D A McLoughlin

80/1

Bumper third on debut remains a standout effort. Pulled up in only previous hurdle start prior to finishing fifth of 7 at Downpatrick (25/1) 20 days ago when left behind 2f out. Will need to improve back in a maiden hurdle.

Form: 366P-5

Kom Tu Voudras^t1¹⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Simon Torrens| T: W P Mullins

5/1

Third in French Bumper on debut in 2023 but pulled up in Grade 1 Hurdle at Fairyhouse (150/1) on debut for Willie Mullins. First-time tongue strap fitted for reappearance and likely to be capable of better with her sights lowered (yard also saddle Venusienne).

Form: 3/P-

Supreme Axel²⁸³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: Philip Donovan⁽³⁾| T: J Fahey

250/1

Last of 5 finishers on sole completed start in points (Dec 2024). Unlikely to make an impact first time up over hurdles for new yard.

Form: 5P-

Venusienne^h1¹⁷²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins

2/7

Fairly useful form when a promising runner-up in a Listed hurdle at Auteuil debut. Highly tried in two starts for Willie Mullins, pulled up in Grade 1 at Fairyhouse (33/1) after disappointing at Cheltenham. First-time hood and drop into maiden company may see her make a winning return.

Form: 2/0P-

Atlantic City^b¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Eoghan Finegan⁽⁷⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 105

9/2

Finished third in her previous 4 maiden hurdle starts. Third of 16 in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon (11/1) 10 days ago, got back on track with blinkers replacing cheekpieces, in contention entering straight but no extra run-in. Should remain competitive.

Form: 833-33

East Cork Flyer¹²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: John Shinnick⁽³⁾| T: W J Burke

125/1

Showed little ability in two hurdle starts, finishing 13th of 18 at Clonmel (125/1) and tailing off badly. Needs significant improvement stepping up in trip.

Form: 80

Forecasts

Venusienne (2/7), Atlantic City (9/2), Kom Tu Voudras (5/1), Amboyna (14/1), Royal Order (25/1), Glenmalure Lady (50/1), Katie's Casper (80/1), East Cork Flyer (125/1), Ballinagaine Girl (250/1), Supreme Axel (250/1)

VENUSIENNE showed promise when runner-up in a Listed hurdle at Auteuil on debut and having been highly tried in Graded company on both starts for Willie Mullins, she looks well placed to open her account dropped into maiden company on return. Stablemate Kom Tu Voudras is likely to be capable of better with her sights lowered and can make it a 1-2 for the yard, while Atlantic City has been consistent in maiden hurdles and may again hit the frame.
