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

Off time: 17:05 | Winning time: 4m 9.50s

Castle May

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr O McGill⁽⁵⁾| T: N C Kelly

18/1

Conduit mare. Dam (b73) ran once in bumper. Yard 3-18 with their runners in bumpers in last 5 seasons and the betting can prove a useful guide as to expectations on debut.

Form:

Churchfield Annie^t1²¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: E Mullins

4/5

Joshua Tree mare who improved on a promising debut effort under a positive ride when second in a Galway bumper (2m, soft) in October. Shaped as if amiss up in grade at Navan in November but given a break since and she could yet resume progress. Tongue strap now applied.

Form: 32P/

Freeway^t³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Aileen O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: S Millar

80/1

Well held all 3 starts in bumpers.

Form: 00/8

Goodgollymissholly³⁶⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr H C Swan| T: G Elliott

11/1

Shirocco mare who was at long odds and reportedly lost action when pulled up in a Sligo bumper (18.5f) on sole start for Paul John Gilligan 12 months ago. Has since made a very interesting yard switch, so noteworthy if the betting spoke in her favour.

Form: P/

Jet To Glory⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr J L Gleeson| T: J C McConnell

7/1

Runner-up on second of 2 starts in points (Mar 22) but shaped like a stayer starting out for new stable when fifth of 24 in a Punchestown maiden hurdle (16.5f) 8 days ago. Looks best watched now switched to a bumper.

Form: P2/5

Magical Sal^p³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr L P Shanahan⁽⁷⁾| T: C A McBratney

14/1

Modest form at best in 3 bumpers (trained by Conor O'Keeffe first 2), not for the first time shaping like a stayer after 6 months off when fifth in a C&D contest 37 days ago. Longer trips over jumps promise to be more suitable but respected for place purposes nevertheless.

Form: 63P/5

Our Sara^t1²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Conor Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: J Fahey

8/1

Attracted support but again failed to better poor form when ninth of 14 in a bumper at Wexford (2m) on most recent start 4 weeks ago. Tongue strap now reached for.

Form: 74/9

Irish Lace

Age: 4| Weight: 11-6| J: Mr S Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: S R B Crawford

5/1

Crystal Ocean filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) My Design. Of interest on debut for yard no stranger to success with their runners in this sphere.

Forecasts

Churchfield Annie (4/5), Irish Lace (5/1), Jet To Glory (7/1), Our Sara (8/1), Goodgollymissholly (11/1), Magical Sal (14/1), Castle May (18/1), Freeway (80/1)

CHURCHFIELD ANNIE clearly wasn't 100% when pulled up in a much stronger affair at Navan in November and, having shaped with definite promise on her 2 previous bumper runs, she looks well worthy of another chance back from a break. Newcomer Irish Lace represents a stable no stranger to success in this discipline and she commands a second look along with Magical Sal. Goodgollymissholly needs a market check on debut for Gordon Elliott.
