14/1

Shaped a bit better than first time up 11 weeks on when sixth of 15 in valuable sales race at the Curragh (6.3f, good to soft) a couple of months ago. Gelded since and one for the longer term.

American Cowboy¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: James Ryan| T: Daniel Murphy

11/1

Made an encouraging start when third in C&D maiden here on debut but seemed stretched by the 1f longer trip when sixth of 14 here just under 3 weeks ago. Remains with potential back at 7f.

9/1

Lucky Vega colt who finished third of 10 in barrier trial at Leopardstown in August but was very green ninth of 14 in maiden over C&D last month. Should find out more here.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Colin Keane| T: Derek McCormack

4/1

Showed a bit more than on debut when fourth of 14 in maiden at Navan (6f, soft) 3 weeks ago, running on. Step up to 7f looks a good move.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Chris Hayes| T: Donnacha O'Brien

9/1

Ulysses filly who looked badly in need of the experience when sixth of 14 in maiden over C&D on debut last month. Should improve.

Down the field in 2 turf maidens. Looks one for later on.

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Declan McDonogh| T: J P O'Brien

15/2

Went backwards from debut when ninth of 15 in maiden at Galway (7f, soft) back in late-July. Worth another chance.

Form: 49

Marcescence³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Jack Kearney| T: G P Cromwell| BF

4/1

Ran at least as well as on debut when third of 21 in maiden at Navan (6f, good to soft) 5 weeks ago. Step up in trip a positive move and she could prove tough to beat.

Form: 33

Esprit De Loi⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Siobhan Rutledge| T: N Meade| OR: 70

16/1

Ran best race despite the drop in trip when third of 11 in maiden at this course (6f) 7 days ago. Likely to stay 1¼m and open to further improvement when handicapping after this.

Form: 973

Jade Fox²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Reese Holohan⁽⁵⁾| T: G P Cromwell

12/1

Showed more than first time up when third of 12 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft) last month. Probably one for handicaps after this.

Form: 03

Sonic Sabiha¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Rebecca Parsons⁽¹⁰⁾| T: D Marnane| OR: 80

11/4

Starting to look exposed after 5 starts, fifth of 14 in maiden over C&D a fortnight ago. No surprise to see her in the mix here.

Forecasts

Marcescence (9/4), Sonic Sabiha (4/1), Jade Fox (6/1), Direct Action (7/1), Sake Nights (8/1), Pennsylvania Ave (10/1), Esprit De Loi (10/1), American Cowboy (10/1), Chicago Caray (16/1), Celestial Order (20/1), September Duke (20/1), Farmerspolish (33/1), Salamantino (33/1), In Sequence (50/1), Elzante (50/1), Bajan Bambi (66/1), Sevengrandchildren (100/1)

Plenty of dead wood in this maiden and MARCESCENCE is selected to make it third time lucky having shaped promisingly when placed in a couple of Navan maidens. This step up to 7f looks a good move and she can get the better of Sonic Sabiha, who was suspended under the non-triers rule at Listowel in September but has run well here on both subsequent outings. Direct Action and Jade Fox can fight out minor honours.
