Lars Soldier⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Wesley Joyce⁽³⁾| T: M Mulvany

6/4

Confirmed debut promise when successful over 5f at the Curragh in April. 6¼ lengths fifth of 7 to Great Barrier Reef in Marble Hill Stakes at the Curragh (6f, good to firm, 33/1) 4 days ago. The one to beat turned out quickly and down in class.

Form: 415

High King²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Gavin Ryan| T: Donnacha O'Brien

8/1

Looked badly in need of the experience when last of 12 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good) on debut 24 days ago.

Form: 0

(2)

Granite Mountain⁷⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Julian Pietropaolo⁽⁷⁾| T: K Smith

80/1

Cheap buy given his pedigree and he was last of 7 in maiden at the Curragh (5f, heavy) on debut 74 days ago. Up in trip.

Form: 7

(4)

I Ready⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Robert Whearty| T: P W Flynn

10/1

Foaled March 2. €10,000 yearling, Invincible Army gelding. Dam, runner-up at 6f from just 2 starts, half-sister to useful 5f winner Mayleaf Shine and 1m-1½m winner Insignia of Rank. Sent off 80/1 but opening effort at the Curragh (6f) 5 days ago wasn't devoid of promise.

Form: 6

(8)

Joga Bonito¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Lee| T: P Twomey| BF

13/8

Promising type. Sent off 2/1 but could manage only fourth of 10 in maiden at Roscommon (7.5f, good) on debut 17 days ago, found wanting for know-how. Should step up on that for his in-form stable.

Form: 4

(7)

Pisiffik Ginger

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Shane Foley| T: Mrs J Harrington

10/1

Foaled March 16. €22,000 foal, Cotai Glory filly. Dam 1m winner who stayed 1¼m. Stable in good form so worth a cautionary market check on debut.

(6)

Tatianna⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: J Cleary⁽⁵⁾| T: J Halley

9/1

Showed a bit amidst greenness when third of 10 in maiden at Cork (5f, soft, 25/1) on debut 9 days ago. That isn't form to be getting carried away with and she's now up in trip

Form: 3

(9)

Magical Moonlight

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Jamie Powell| T: J P Murtagh

14/1

Foaled April 11. €12,000 yearling, Invincible Army filly. Half-sister to 6f winner Nalu. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Bred to be sharp.

Citrus Springs

Weight: 9-1| Age: 2

T: J P O'Brien J: J M Sheridan

Forecasts

Lars Soldier (7/4), Citrus Springs (3/1), Joga Bonito (7/2), Tatianna (8/1), Pisiffik Ginger (12/1), I Ready (12/1), Magical Moonlight (14/1), High King (16/1), Granite Mountain (50/1)

LARS SOLDIER fared about as well as could be expected when fifth in the Marble Hill Stakes on Sunday and back down in class, he can successfully concede weight all round. Joga Bonito will have derived plenty from his opening mark so he's a threat, with expensive buy Citrus Springs a newcomer of extreme interest.
