(6)

Beach Barbie¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: James Ryan| T: E Lynam

125/1

Didn't shape with immediate promise in 6f maiden here on debut earlier this month and likely vulnerable conceding weight to the 3-y-os.

Form: 7

She's A Gift²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽³⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 39

200/1

Long-standing maiden who looks set for another struggle kept to this company.

Form: 8070-45

Call The Cavalry^p³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Gary Carroll| T: C Timmons| OR: 71

17/2

Progressed with each run to date, posting a creditable fifth in a 7f maiden here 5 weeks ago. However, suspicion he may well find a couple too strong again and handicaps promise to be more his bag. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 5-35

Namiid²¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 86| BF

5/2

Son of Acclamation who showed fairly useful form during a relatively busy 2-y-o campaign. Disappointed on final start (proved too free) but gelded ahead of return and can get back on track.

Form: 330324-

Atallah¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Gavin Ryan| T: K H Clarke

300/1

Arizona filly who has failed to beat a rival in 2 starts 9 months apart.

Form: 0-8

(10)

Aughlish¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Declan McDonogh| T: C O'Connell

9/1

Soldier's Call filly who knew more than on debut and improved having been to the fore throughout when third in a 6f maiden here 2 weeks ago. Drop back to the minimum trip a good move on that evidence.

Form: 43

(9)

Falcon Queen^h²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Lee| T: K J Condon

6/1

Bred to be useful and looked much more tractable with a hood fitted/after 4 months off when fourth in a 6f maiden here 3 weeks ago. Type to progress again on that evidence.

Form: 4-4

(5)

Frosted Sky

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Scott McCullagh| T: Daniel McLoughlin

22/1

No Nay Never filly. Dam 6f winner. Probable outsider on debut.

Real Encounter¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 80

5/6

Lucky Vega filly who took another step forward when neck second over 6f here on return 2 weeks ago and she's a big player tackling 5f for the first time.

Form: 44-2

Forecasts

Real Encounter (5/6), Namiid (5/2), Falcon Queen (6/1), Call The Cavalry (17/2), Aughlish (9/1), Eager Lad (10/1), Frosted Sky (22/1), Beach Barbie (125/1), She's A Gift (200/1), Atallah (300/1)

NAMIID proved to be a disappointment on his final start of 2025 but the pick of his juvenile form gives him obvious claims on return/all-weather debut and he's fancied to bounce back having also been gelded. Real Encounter is progressing gradually and feared, as is Falcon Queen, who remains with her best days ahead of her.
