Aleppo Pepper⁴³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Darragh Keenan| T: J Ryan

13/2

Twice-raced filly who was second in maiden (40/1) at Dundalk (5f) when last seen in January 2025. Probably best watched on first run for yard since leaving Kieran Patrick Cotter.

Form: 0/2-

Ay Up Duck¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Havlin| T: M Appleby

8/13

18,000 gns Earthlight gelding who showed plenty of promise when second of 6 in maiden here (7.1f) on debut 12 days ago. Is open to improvement, though it remains to be seen if he'll fully benefit from the drop down to the minimum trip.

Form: 2

Likeadyinwasp

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll

66/1

€9,000 yearling, Bungle Inthejungle gelding. Closely related to 6f winners Cheeky Stanley and Karelen. Dam, 5.5f/6f winner (including at 2 yrs). A speedy type on paper, he's worth a market check on debut.

Vinciamo²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| BF

11/4

Left Marcus Tregoning and gelded, finished third of 5 to Merlier in maiden at Newcastle (5f, 10/11) in March. That rival has gone in again since and he should last longer with that run under his belt. Big player.

Form: 3-3

(2)

Dolo's Star²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: Grant Tuer

33/1

€14,500 Starman filly who looked one for the longer term when last of 5 in maiden at Newcastle (5f) 4 weeks ago.

Form: 5

Shes Got A Brother^h1,t1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby

11/1

100,000 gns 2-y-o, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to smart 9f-1¾m winner Future History (by Showcasing). Dam 2-y-o 1m winner who stayed 1¼m. Looks like one who'll need time and distance on paper. Wears hood/tongue tie.

Forecasts

Ay Up Duck (8/13), Skip To Victory (9/4), Vinciamo (11/4), Reigning Queen (4/1), Aleppo Pepper (13/2), Shes Got A Brother (11/1), Dolo's Star (33/1), Likeadyinwasp (66/1)

VINCIAMO is bred to be at least useful and can open his account at the third time of asking. Ay Up Duck is the clear danger following an encouraging start here recently.
