Irish Stallion Farms EBF Auction (Pro/Am) Flat Race

4YO plus | 1m 7f 150y | 10 Runners | Turf

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr H C Swan| T: G Elliott

€30,000 3-y-o, Mahler gelding. Dam (c111/h109), 23f/3m hurdle/chase winner (stayed 31f), half-sister to useful hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 29f) Elegant Escape. Third when fell 2 out only outing in points (Mar 2025) and he's an interesting bumper debutant for top stable.

Of Land And Sea⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr J L Gleeson| T: P Hennessy

Crystal Ocean gelding who matched debut form starting out for new stable when fifth of 15 in bumper at Naas (16f, heavy, 17/2) 43 days ago, albeit very much having run of race. Needs to pull out a little more.

Form: 45

Prince Malinas

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr J P Murray⁽⁷⁾| T: L Whitmore

€23,000 3-y-o, Malinas gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Polly's Fortune. Dam, placed in bumper, half-sister to fair bumper winner Simple Assignment.

Burning Ability²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr A Burke-Ott⁽⁷⁾| T: E McCarthy

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Creditable second of 9 in novice hurdle at this course (19f, heavy, 5/2) 29 days ago. Placed on both previous starts in this sphere and no surprise to see him thereabouts again.

Form: 5232

King Idaho⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr A D Bustin⁽⁷⁾| T: C Byrnes

€20,000 3-y-o, Idaho gelding who showed ability and probably would have benefited from more of a test when sixth of 15 in bumper (12/1) at Naas (16f, heavy) on NH debut 43 days ago, running on having not been ideally placed. Likely he can do better.

Form: 6

Alzurs Thunder⁴³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr B T Stone⁽⁷⁾| T: Paul Power

Affinisea half-brother to modest hurdler Birdman Bob, stays 21f. Dam (h110), bumper/2m hurdle winner, closely related to smart hurdler/top-class chaser (stayed 3¼m) Monalee. Easy winner sole start in points (Nov 2024) and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant.

Desmond George¹²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Miss E Cody⁽⁷⁾| T: R P Cody

Twice-raced maiden. 14/1, ran to a similar level as on debut when fourth of 16 in bumper at Navan (15.8f, good to soft) 129 days ago, no extra when headed over 1f out. Needs to take a step forward returning from a break.

Form: 74

Gillane⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr D G Lavery| T: G P Cromwell

Point-runner up who showed fair form in a pair of Gowran maiden hurdles and he again shaped well when second of 8 in bumper at Navan (16f, heavy) 52 days ago, left with lot to do. Has made an interesting yard switch ahead of this and he's one to consider.

Form: P263/52

Jury Time³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: S Curling

Jukebox Jury mare who tasted success in points and shaped well under the circumstances when finishing a close-up third of 14 in bumper at this course (16f, heavy) on NH debut 32 days ago. Fancied to build on that and she's respected.

Form: 34/613

Dlightofdsun²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr M J Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: Brendan Walsh

Big prices and well held both starts to date, latterly when eighth of 9 in bumper at Cork (16f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Passed over.

Form: 68

Forecasts

Burning Ability (11/4), Gillane (3/1), Hezekiah Moscow (4/1), Jury Time (9/2), Alzurs Thunder (10/1), King Idaho (10/1), Desmond George (12/1), Of Land And Sea (12/1), Prince Malinas (25/1), Dlightofdsun (100/1)

GILLANE shaped well having been set a fair bit to do when runner-up in a Navan bumper 52 days ago and, having made a very interesting yard switch since, he could be worth siding with to confirm the promise of that effort here. Burning Ability and Jury Time are other viable candidates, with Rules newcomer Hezekiah Moscow another to note debuting for a top stable.
