Attracted support and shaped well amidst greenness when second of 9 in maiden at Fairyhouse (6f) on debut 8 days ago, closing all the way to the line. Leading contender with improvement to come.

Struggled with the pace and never landed a blow when fifth of 8 in maiden at Bellewstown (5f) on debut 13 days ago. Up in trip but looks one for the longer term.

Finished third in a barrier trial at Naas but was never involved making Rules debut when tenth of 14 in maiden at Cork (6f) last month. Looks to face a difficult task.

Forecasts

Star Of State (1/3), Pink Venom (4/1), This That (11/2), Someday Somewhere (9/1), Not You Too (12/1), El Domino (22/1), Whosinterviewinwho (25/1), Magma King (25/1), Scotty Cameron (50/1), Dear Theodosia (66/1), Little Diva (100/1), Siege Of Tyre (150/1)

Verdict

STAR OF STATE made a promising debut when runner-up at Fairyhouse last week, beaten only by one with the benefit of experience, and she can build on that effort to open her account. Pink Venom took a big step forward from her first outing and is feared most, with newcomer This That completing the shortlist.
