Today's Gate Sponsored By The INPBA Fillies Maiden

Showed more ability than the distance beaten suggests when sixth of 9 in maiden at Cork (7f, soft) on debut in September, rallying before unable to sustain effort. Could leave that effort behind on return from 8 months off.

Offered little in 2 maidens in April, again failing to beat a rival in 13-runner contest at Limerick (7f) on latest outing.

€38,000 yearling, Sottsass filly. Dam, 9.4f winner (stayed 1¼m), sister to smart 1½m winner Pollara. Finished fourth of 6 behind Elusive Echo in barrier trial at Naas in May.

€48,000 foal, Sea The Stars filly. Sister to 9.7f winner Motriff and 1½m winner Rogue King and half-sister to useful 1m-1¼m winner Evident Beauty. Won 6-runner barrier trial at Naas in May and she's respected for her leading yard. Wears tongue strap.

Has looked in need of the experience both starts so far, slowly away and never involved when thirteenth of 15 in maiden over this C&D 12 days ago.

Offered something to work on amidst greenness when fifth of 12 in 7f maiden at this course on debut in May. Could take a step forward, though has plenty to find in this contest.

Didn't make much impact in 2 starts in May, though finished with running left when seventh of 11 in 7f maiden at Dundalk 6 days ago. Remains with more still to offer as she learns with experience.

€7,000 foal, €3,000 yearling, Alkumait filly. Half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 8.5f Chuck Willis (2-y-o 6f winner) and 10.5f-1½m winner Xebec, both useful. Dam 7f winner (including at 2 yrs). Has a fair standard to aim at first time up

Elzaam filly. Sister to useful 1¼m-12.4f winner Smooth Tom and half-sister to 14.2f winner Royal Hollow. Dam maiden (stayed 1m). Watch for market clues on debut.

Got back on track this year when second of 10 in maiden claimer at Roscommon (7.4f) 2 weeks ago, despite having been left with too much to do after a slow start. Looks to hold leading claims with latest run behind her.

Dawn Approach filly. Dam, runner-up at 6f at 2 yrs (stayed 7f), half-sister to useful winner up to 1¼m New Treasure out of useful winner up to 7f (2-y-o 6f winner) Maoineach.
